On the other hand, if an employee was at a job for a month and is already sending out resumes to new potential employers, that means they know their worth and they aren't getting it.

So, I agree with you, if someone switches jobs within a month, that is a huge red flag that the employer doesn't take care of their workforce.

Why even put that job on your resume?

Don’t work. Just cash in that UNEMP. Easy peasy

Be honest. Be yourself.

Should I not have done that?

As long as it's not a pattern of short stints, the last one ending quickly is not going to be a huge issue. The good answers above would work for me.

Didn’t want a gap. It’s not a “I have to move right now” I mean I can smile and make it into the New Year if I have to but I just don’t want to.

Nice group of people just don’t feel the new manager is in a good place to be taking and training a new employee. Her first day of manager was my first day. It just hasn’t been smooth and not much going on. I beg for work a few times a day and I find myself reading training manuals. Just seems rather poorly put together.
