Im quiting my job, and im going to a job almost exactly the same as it. But I need an excuse why I quit the job im quitting? I quit cuz i hate the people there, but thats not a good thing to put on a application. Any Ideas?

That's not a bad reason to put..I'd just word it different than "I hate the people there."



I don't know how I'd word it...and if I couldn't come up with something, I'd bullshit and say I was being harassed by someone..or something.



There ya go..say Excessive Harassment that the Management doesn't seem to want to do anything about.

"had to leave because they discovered my drug habit"



:p



how about

"schedule conflict"

If you use that, and the job doesn't have a (public) history of "harassing" employees, future employers will just think you are a whiner and can't get along with others. :boring:



NEVER say bad things about previous jobs unless there is a very good reason to.

Ok, so you are quitting the job, and going to another one right away? It's called "Better Opportunity Elsewhere." A perfectly valid reason for quitting and doesn't look bad on anyones behalf. That's what I always put, regardless of the reason I quit.

I was gonna say "Needed better work environment" but that's probably better. anything that makes it looks like it was your decision but not saying anything bad (and not lying).

I just put it was too stressful hehehe, was hoping for a quick answer but didnt get one till after I get back and its full of em! heheheh thanks anyways all =)

that kinda makes it seem like you can't handle it...

Say you wanted a change. Even if they are the same.

You could say you didn't feel you had advancement opportunities at the previous job. Which is similar to what Speed said.
