    They always ask why I left, and I freeze. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I also do not want to seem like a risk. Do you mention numbers?

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

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