SQL query I just can't figure out

I have two tables. 

 

user_employment

employment

 

The relationship is on the field "employID" many user_employments to one employment. 

 

The basic structure (just the field that matter) are as follows:

 

user_employment['employID', 'userID']

employment['employID', ... ,'current']

 

The field 'current' is enum(0, 1) (i.e. it can only be 0 or 1). 

 

What I want my query to do is find the employment record that is equal to 1 for a specific user, and make it equal to 0.

 

Pseudo Code:

UPDATE employment SET current = 0 WHERE employID = [the employID that is associated with the specified user, $userID]

 

Thanks
