Default This one has me worried

Hey Guys, I have an issue with my 04 turbo Cruzer, When I first start it up in the morning, the oil light stays on ( ten or twelve seconds, seems like hours!). If I shut it off and start it up the light goes off right away ( one or two seconds). It will happen if it's been off for many hours, like at work all day and early in the morning. Does this sound like trouble or is there a bad sensor somewhere?
It has fresh Mobil one oil and filter and level is right on.

It sounds like a bad oil sending unit if you don't hear any noise like valves. The sensor is a cheap part, should be in the 20 buck range
