    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as a forklift operator. I am in Kansas City, in case local advice matters. I do not want to blame the company. Do you mention numbers?

    Say it plainly and move on to what you can do. Interviewers usually move on if you do.
