Most HR managers would be able to immediately decipher honest truth from the crap excuses that people dish out during interviews...
Usually there're only a handful of reasons why a person would rather go jobless and hungry than to stay employed..
1) the person cannot perform in his/her job and is "invited" to leave...
2) the person cannot survive the company politics.. Cause of death is due to excessive bleeding from the numerous back-stabbing..
3) The individual is overly idealistic about purpose of life... is navie enough to think that he can eat air and drink rain untill the perfect job comes along... But has already woken up to the reality.... becos savings account is down to the last few dollars.. and the family is threatening to kick him out of the house because he is not contributing economically to the household...
4) Fantasized about being an entrepreneur but lost it all in some silly startup and so now has be become an employee again...
