I'm getting ready to get another job after almost a year of not having one. My last job I only worked 2 months but it was valuable experience in my field.
I had to quit (but was fired for quitting) because my boss paid me a different rate every paycheck, held my checks for an extra week before giving them to me, and refused to pay me overtime. I had to get the DOL involved.
I know I'm going to be asked why I only worked there for such a short time and I don't know how to answer that without being harsh about my former employer.
This was the first time I had been employed for my position on my own. Not as an assistant but actually holding the role.
I've seen some of you guys come up with really great ways to word things and I implore your help.
TL:DR My previous boss messed up my pay repeatedly. How do I explain that to new employers and still get the job?
