When filling out job applications, don't be negative, but, do be honest and don't lie, because it will come back to haunt you. You can use language like "job ended" or "terminated" if you need to state why you are no longer working at the job. If you are specifically asked if you were fired, you need to answer yes. Lying on a job application is grounds for dismissal at any time in the future and could cost you future unemployment benefits.

There are a few things I've learned in being terminated from a position I liked.  First, no matter how many of your old Boy Scout leaders, pastors, teachers and old girlfriends you line up for references, the former employer will always be believed over you.  If you were fired because you refused to give your boss certain "favors" not covered in the company handbook, and he says you were fired for coming to work drunk, you'll never get anywhere.\n\nStep One:  Screw job-hunting.  I've been doing it for nineteen months.  No success, due in large part to the fact that I'm getting torpedoed every time by that former boss.  A job you get fired from is tantamount in an interview to experience you don't have.  You may as well say you played with yourself for three years, rather than tell them that you were the best guy on the assembly line, showed up on time every day and busted your hump to make things good for yourself.\n\nStep Two:  Go into business for yourself.  Corporations are in the pocket of politicians, and you haven't the time or the energine to take on either in a fair fight.  Fight dirty or turn pro, but one has a longer line of credit in the breathing privileges department.\n\nStep Three:  Profit.  Show the world your potential by not compromising on ANYTHING in the pursuit of clearing your good name from whatever former employers have said.  Show your friends, family, and potential employers (when you return to the workforce-at-large) that you grew as a "lone wolf" rather than let your ass get kicked into your nostrils by a corporate machine that used you like a whore and discarded you like a candy bar wrapper.\n\nFollow these steps and you, my friend, will have the ultimate revenge:  fair-market competition.

Tell the truth and then tell them to prove you did something wrong if they want to fire you.  If they do fire you, then you can take them to court as you did nothing wrong.

I did. My boss came in one day and asked why I always looked like I was in a bad mood(he said it with an attitude) so I said: You'd be in a bad mood too if you worked for an As*hole like you. He looked at me, shocked and then said , you know I should fire you for that...I replied: Fire me then.....We stood there glaring at each other for a moment then he said....go back to work.. and that was the end of it. I guess you have to know how far you can push the envelope with your boss.

Well to start off, congratulations for being totally upfront and honest with your former employer about leaving the company.  Even though it seems you were punished for this, it was totally the right thing to do; you have nothing to be ashamed of or anything to feel that you should hide, which you would have had if you had been sneaky or deceitful.  So, that is something a new employer should definitely take into consideration.\nIf I were in your spot, I would be up front and honest about the situation without tearing apart the former boss or company.  I quit my job back inJanuary due to physical and emotional stress, and am just now trying to find a job.  It's taken me that long to get over the damage done to my heart.  I have asked prospective employers to not speak with my former employer, and I tell them the truth:  that it was a very hostile environment and that I am not comfortable with anyone at that company knowing what is going on in my life.  I have, however, given references of people who worked there when I did that are no longer there that I am okay with.  The two places I have been interviewed this week were very understanding.  Mostly, they appreciated my honesty.  But, I was also careful to not tear apart anybody, either.  I think that helped.\nIf you let them know your version of what happened while being respectful of the people involved and they call your old boss who lets her mouth run off about what a louse you are and drags your reputation through the mud and they choose to listen to her, it's probably not the place for you to be anyway.  Chances are they will compare your respectfulness to her disrespect and you'll win out anyway.  In any case, you'll be able to look at yourself in the mirror the next day, knowing you have done the right thing, no matter the outcome. \nBest wishes!

Say something like "I am looking to expand my knowledge and skillset."\n9 out of 10 employers won't call the past boss anyways.  And if they do, they aren't SUPPOSED to ask the details of why you left.

Ultimately, you should be bold enough to tell your boss this directly, although I know it can be difficult. If you're going to wind up leaving anyway, what do you have to lose?\n\nYou never know - he could wind up respecting you for your boldness, and could know deep down that you're an asset to the corporation.\n\nI honestly believe that there's a correct and bold way to speak up, but it does carry a risk of getting fired. You need to look within yoiurself for the answer, but I've provided some clues.

Just tell her the truth and if she begins to go off, just leave.  You don't have to worry about seeing her anymore if you quit so who cares what she thinks.  Or you can stand your ground and when she begins to go off just say, "Look!  This is exactly why I am quitting.  I deserve to be treated with respect and any manager that runs a respectable business would know that it is inappropriate to humiliate an employee in front of other coworkers.  As for you constantly accusing me of theft without any proof...some people would consider this harassment and grounds for your dismissal."  That should shut her up.  Good luck.  I've had one too many bosses the same way.

Having been in a mangement position,this is something I've had to deal with. And, no it's not fun ! However for the welbeing, safety,enthusiasm and productivity of fellow employee's it's quite necessary.\n   First, you must decide whether or not this person is genuinely a good person, with honorable work ethics and is worth your time. Figure out if their performance is suffering for a specific reason.Something that will subside with a little time and encouragement. This way when you write 'The Dreaded Letter' you can be brutally honest, but in a concerned and understanding way. Because you are having to write the letter in the first place ,obviously they're not aware of a problem. Nor the effect it's having on the rest of the staff. Sometimes even good people need a lil' kick in the pants. People with charecter, will appreciate the honesty.They will accept and learn from your criticism.And realize your expectations.\n  If this is the case, the warning should include all points of concern and possible solutions. Your overall feelings and your gratitude for the work done well.\n   As mentioned previously ,is this person worth your time?\n If not, your letter should consist of two words only . YOUR FIRED ! Good luck, PEACHY

I would just wait.  For one your current employer can't fire you because you're looking for new employment.\n\nPersonally, if I were the one doing the hiring, I wouldn't devulge any information about when you would be working.  I would tell them that they need to speak with you.

Write a polite letter stating your departure date and thanking your employer for the opportunity to work for them.  You do not need to tell them your reason for leaving in the letter, but leave the option open for them to ask.  Many employers reserve a right to a "departure interview" where they will ask why you are leaving, but a lot of places don't take the time to ask, they just work on replacing you.  Here's an example:\n\nDear Boss,\n\nPlease accept my resignation of my position as *whatever*.  My last day will be *two weeks from date of letter*.  I have enjoyed my time at your company and greatly appreciate the opportunities provided for professional and personal growth.  I will be happy to speak with you further at your convenience.\n\nSincerely,\nMe

(Cold comfort version):  "This too shall pass."\n\n(Better):  You get off from work soon!\n\n(Best):  Hey sexy! Your silver-tongued charm will be     fully operational again tomorrow, so all of the a**** will be charmed off the donkeys again, and you can rejoice once more in being your own suave self!  :0)

Talk to your manager.

Actually it sounds like you want to prepare a letter of resignation.\n\nThat is, a letter to inform your boss that you are resigning your position.\n\nHere are a link to some samples you can use as reference:\n\nhttp://jobsearchtech.about.com/od/letters/l/aa030998_6.htm

Here is what I would do:\n\nSit down with your boss/manager and have an explicit conversation about why they don't feel comfortable with you.  Let them know you have a strong interest in keeping your job and would be willing to work hard towards keeping it.   You want to know how you can prove yourself in the two months that are left.   \n\nIf they say the decision is already made, I'd press the question of why they don't feel comfortable.  You should mention that it will be helpful for you to know so you can avoid this type of situation in future jobs.  You may also want to suggest that while this opportunity may have not been the right fit, there maybe another job at the capitol that could be.   I would emphasize the value of your experience, education and relevant capabilities and how a fresh start may be what you need.   I would ask explicitly if they would help you pursue other opportunities.  \n\nIf they focus on your screw ups, accept responsibility for your part prior to providing an excuse.   It is important that your  manager understand that you take responsibility seriously.   People screw up.  Some take responsibility. Some make excuses.  Continue to be professional regardless of their decision.   While they may not provide you a reference, you don't want to burn bridges.  I would explicitly mention that regardless of their decision, you would like to work on rebuilding your professional relationship with your manager in the time you have left.\n\nOk, let's say it doesn't work out.  Is this the end of your career?  No, I doubt it.  I have had plenty of friends who have been laid off/fired for a number of reasons.  It is a scary, insecure time but remember that you won't land your next job without confidence.  It is important that you remember and reinforce the type of value you can bring an employer.   You may think that you do not have any connections but you went to school for 6 years.   Use your alumni network to seek jobs and informational interviews at companies/entities of your interest.

Your letter sounds heartfelt and truthful, which is good.  Did you send it already?  I would also call your manager or whomever let you go and explain your situation too as well as mail the letter.  Most places if they feel you are heartfelt would like to give seconds chances.  I don't know the reasoning behind why you were terminated, and I am sure that they will take that in to consideration too.  If  I were you I'd start looking for another job, too, just incase this falls through.  Good luck.
