The statistic, for whatever they are worth, I've always heard, is that the average person changes careers (not necessarily jobs) 2 -3 times in their lifetime... they can have 2, 4, 7 jobs in that one career...
I work with lots of people, particularly those above a certain age, who've spent their career within one company - absolutely not doing the same thing -moving around with the company... At one point - the company would show you loyalty, in the form of a pension, etc... those days are gone...
