No.. I was not working a ball and chain under a deputy's gun.
Yes.. I started a landscaping business that failed miserably.
Yes.. I needed time to recover from the damage by physical labor.

Yes...I was a student again at age 45/55/65...
Yes...I discovered my retirement pension fund was looted by management
and I had to return to job hunting where no one over age 45 was selected for

Yes..I discovered the Americans Disability Act means nothing during HR interviews
when my most frequent answer was "HUH? Would you please repeat that question?"

inside of my leg during an interview.
Yes..I really DO object to the intrusion of a spontaneous neck massage during a job interview.

Yes. I have had ALL of these experiences...and then some that are unprintable. I resigned immediately when I discovered such abuse was endorsed and encouraged by management.
Have you had similar experiences? Your reaction.

Not useful. No serious answers were given. Need useful information for employment gaps. Thank you.
I liked the article and thought it helped bring out the irony of some things that may go within a job; but that often is not dealt with or cannot be dealt with without a lot of political mess resulting from speaking out, etc.
Yes, there could have been more information forthcoming within the article; but at last I don't feel that I am the only one who gets questioned with "off-the-wall" questions that do not pertain to me nor have they ever.
