What you posted is retarded, even for someone just starting in their field. It makes it clear that none of you have ever worked in a field that actually did anything that mattered, or provided tangible goods and services.

Do not actually leave a job after six months.

Six months on the job and you barely will have integrated into the workforce and gotten all your trainings, keys, accounts, etc... set up. You may have just finished the first real task of meaning assigned to you. That's it. You never got trusted with more responsibility than the last place you were at, you didn't have time to prove you're worth more than you're getting paid now, and when the prospective employer calls your boss asking about you, he's going to say you came in acting like you were interested in the company, worked for 4 months, and coasted for 2 after thinking you landed a new job.

Job hopping every 2 years basically only applies to people fresh out of graduate school, looking for postdocs or the industrial equivalent so that they can get a job on their CV and prove to the next people they work for that they can be functional outside a university.

I hate my dad sometimes.

depends on the career. i'm in accounting. my history has been:
staff auditor - 9 months
experienced staff accountant - 2 years 6 months
senior accountant - currently been here for 4 months

i plan on hopping again at the 2-2.5 year mark for manager. it gets harder after this because subsequent roles are less "wagie do task" and more long term projects, planning, and strategy. i have, however, seen former coworkers pull it off and hop into senior manager and director level positions at very large companies.

An accountant with clients all over the country told me to buy a certain stock and never sell. The crash happened shortly after and the company bankrupted.
