What previous jobs to include on a job application?

I've worked at a lot of places (I moved, they were temporary..etc). I'm filling out an application for an office job. Do I only include the previous office jobs I've had or do I include just the ones that I have room for going back in order? so all the retail jobs and resteraunt jobs would be included too?

What previous jobs to include on a job application?
as an employer I like to have a chronological work history, so that I can look at the work history, it is not a matter of how many jobs they have had in a time period, it is to see large gaps in their employment.


but a resume should be about who you are, what you want to do with your life, and all relevant job history, pertaining to the job you are looking to get. you should or could list your aspirations.


and a resume should be attached to the application.
Reply:all good jobs with nice pay, that you didn't get fired from, and your superiors would love to brag about you to future employers. but since that's hard to find, ones that you didn't get fired from for a reason that's your fault. and definetly ones that aren't just office background, to show flexibility.
Reply:write them all down use another sheet of paper if not enough room,and give reasons for leaving employment
