So far, I have not had negative or controversial reasoning behind leaving jobs. I left my last job because I was working two jobs at close to 50 hours a week between them. I did that for about 4 months, and I no longer needed the extra money, and decided to only work at one job at that point. I chose the job that was minutes from my house and had a more convenient schedule that offered more hours, and more reasonable job requirements for the pay, which was the same as the other job that had many more duties. So I put in my two weeks and left gracefully. This job I have now, which is still the one I left my second job for back then, will be over in a month because I'm moving away.
I have not had any work history gaps since beginning work at 19 (I'm 24 now), but I did try to pick up two "side jobs" in the past that I quit immediately. Employers have not mentioned them. I don't add them to my work history, either. If they ever do ask, I am just going to be honest and say that those 2 jobs did not cater to and utilize my abilities at all, or something of that nature. However I am fairly certain my future employers wont care. I am getting my bachelors now, and I don't think 5 years from now employers for the profession I am getting into will ask "why did you quit working at mcdonalds after two days back when you were 20!?!?!? HUH?" Lol. They will be more interested in my long term employment and internships.
