Regarding Steven's giving the reason he was leaving his job because he thought the people or the place were/was too "worldly" - that could have simply been a reason he made up thinking it would not offend anyone....
Now if we had the entire conversation that took place, that might be interesting.
Read a book about interviewing job applicants - it was mentioned that an applicant will have at his/her ready a stock answer to the inevitable question, "Why did you leave your last job", or "why to want to leave you job" .... Once they give their stock reply, and if they believe the interviewer is okay with it, the applicant tends to drop their guard and during conversation that follows will often let out the real reasons....
So I keep that in mind when hearing Steven's "too worldly" remark.
