I list how ever many they want. On a resume I just put the ones related to the job applied for but some application forms want you to list the last 3 or 4, so I put those.
I have worked here for a dozen years and don't really plan to be job hunting after this.
I Have Worked As:
US Air Force Airman
Oil Rig Roughneck (Lead Tong & Derrick)
Security Guard
Police Patrolman
Computer Operator (1970)
French Market Sweeper
Warehouseman
Hospital Stock Tech
Hoagy/Pizza Maker
Art Museum Attendant/Security
Free Clinic LIve-In Staff (N.O. 1971)
Clinic Assistant - (India 1977)
Psych. Tech
Veterinarian Assistant
Child Care Worker
Grounds Keeper
Artists' Model
Nursing Assistant
Direct Care Staff MR
Training Instructor MR
Office Manager

My first job was mowing lawns when I was 14, then it was off to the local grocery store during high school where I was:
Cashier
Courtesy Desk Attendant/Bookkeeper
Produce Dept. Clerk
After that, I moved on to working as a clerk in a fabric store during college,a brief stint as an order entry clerk for a baby toy company, as well as starting my 25-year run at the lab I currently work at.
I started off as a phlebotomist, moved to lab tech-generalist, then Chemistry back-up supervisor, Lab Safety officer, which I presently still do. I'm also Lead Tech for Chemistry, Hematology and Urines, as well as "token" blood banker on second shift. LOL
I usually list all the lab related stuff on my resume, then under a separate section, I list the other jobs under "other work experience" (minus the lawn-mowing!)
I hope to be able to add "Teacher/Instructor" to my resume, come fall, as I'm in the process of applying for a teaching position at one of the local colleges that I could do during the day and still keep my night hours at the hospital. They're looking for someone to teach various courses for the lab tech program, and I hope to be able to teach the chemistry or blood bank courses.

18 jobs. FUCK! I didn't realize I been through so many. There were times when I worked 2 jobs at once, and even for awhile I was working 3 jobs.
And HELL NO, I don't list all of them, only ones I know that I can get a good reference and if they are under the same management as when I was employed there. Which doesn't leave very many.

I'm not about to sit here and count them. More than 5. And no, I don't list all of them unless it is required or pertinent to the job I'm applying for.

I think 11 and since they're not all relevant to my carrier they aren't all on my resume. I'm only on my 4th car.

More than 10. And I don't count them unless it's one of those nit-picky applications. Half of those places don't exist anyway, so I just lie and say I was a great employee.

Oh God....a lot. Over a dozen. No I don't list them all. I only list the ones I had for a significant amount of time, or had a significant position at. The ones that I had only briefly don't get mentioned.
