With a company like NJM, you could make a career out of it easily if you like what you're doing and live close by. Most companies don't like spending money on training people to only have them leave in a year or 2 so don't plan on doing that for long. Companies will see your history of leaving a job in the short term and won't even consider hiring you.
I've been with NJ Transit for almost 20 years now, and I'm also not shopping for a new job. A new position I'm interested in popped up in another shop, so I put in for a transfer. Hell, I'm almost to the point where I will have to start looking at retirement options!
