Explaining a layoff without sounding bitter - any advice?

    I have an interview next week and I am unsure how to explain why I left my last job as a janitorial supervisor. I am in Seattle, in case local advice matters. I also do not want to seem like a risk. What do you say?

    Practise it out loud with a friend. Mine felt natural after the third try.

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