It seems like you had enough luck to find yourself in relatively long, stable positions for work. I have job-hopped through various startups and other small companies, never staying in one place longer than 2 years. I'm introverted as well, and therefore never put much work into building a network. The colleagues I do know, never have anything for me regarding jobs. Basically I'm only good enough for those riskier jobs but not good enough (apparently) for more stable, "corporate" places.
People don't know how hard it is to get a job offer until they are unemployed and don't have a good network. I would love it if I never have to worry about finding another job again.
