Forrest ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Does anyone have an idea of what I might expect in an exit interview?
Oh, I had one of those. Hmm. I suspect they will ask you questions about your employment experience, and you, in the interest of not burning bridges, will end up biting your tongue about how insanely things are run.

Lots of bullshit.
You should bring a shovel.
Don't say anything about the shovel unless they ask what it's for....
shrift, to expand - in theory, as far as I can tell, it's supposed to be them giving you information about continuing your medical coverage, pension/401K status, etc. I think they're also supposed to ask you about why you're leaving, any comments you have to make about your work experience. Sometimes it'll be skipped, even if it's supposedly required, if the person responsible doesn't want to hear what you have to say.

Which will be difficult, as will quelling the maniacal laughter, when they also try to convince you that you really wouldn't be happy elsewhere.

Or maybe they'll fall to their knees, grab your sleeve, and beg you to take them with you.
Or maybe they'll peel off their masks and reveal their alien visages, saying, "Now that the experiment is complete, we won't be needing to wear these anymore...."
I know there are Cadbury Egg lovers around here somewhere. Now you can take it to the next level--Cadbury Egg Cake!
Does anyone have an idea of what I might expect in an exit interview?
At my last one, the interviewer wished me luck and told me I'd always be welcome back. It was kind of nice.
Okay. So the exit interview might suck, but not as much as I was thinking.
shrift, how badly can it suck? They can't exactly fire you. They can't even legally give you a bad reference. Can they be meaner to you than they already have?
If they try chaining you to the desk, let us know and we'll mount a rescue mission.
