TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
You were laid off (or have been told that you soon will
be). Anyone who hasn't been living on Jupiter the past
three or four years will know enough people in the
same boat that they probably won't ask for details.
Unless you have the misfortune to get stuck with one of
those people who enjoy making other people squirm, most
interviewers are as uncomfortable with the subject of
unemployment as anyone else you encounter when you're
not working.

that one will not be asked the question of why one left
