No one seems to want to ask me what happened.

I explained... school ended up being a bigger priority. I gave 2 weeks notice, to a supervisor that no longer works there. In fact, very few people work there that used to work there.

They have some archaic equipment running currently and one of my first jobs would be to get a plan together to upgrade the entire infrastructure.

PS - As far as giving 2 weeks notice. If it's a high school/college/temp job, I don't think it's a big deal to not give 2 weeks notice. If it's a career job, give 2 weeks notice. Future employers always want to talk to former employers. Every single interview form that I've filled out asks if they can contact former employers. Checking "No" is a huge red flag so try not to burn bridges with past employers because you want to check "Yes" in that box.
Good luck man!!! Hope you get it....

Oh, I haven't exactly quit a job in so long, I can't remember the last time I gave notice..LOL 7 1/2 years at my current job, 3 years at my job before that (I was laid off), so I was like 19 last time I quit somewhere... LOL

Quiting is a "youthful" thing IMO. As you get older you have more bills and responsibilities. So you learn how to tough it out, or find another job before you bounce from the old one.
