    I'm filling out an application form and it's asking my reason for leaving previous jobs. I have most of the answers (legitimate, believable) but one job has me stumped for an answer - I don't want to put in "because I hated the sh*thole"

    Any suggestions anyone?

    Thanks in advance.

    Left the position as you had taken the position as far as it could be taken and you wanted a new challenge.

    Hooray! I'll send you my PIN and online banking login separately though, just to be safe. There's all kinds of dishonest people out there.
