There's a whole dance that goes on. If you say, "Oh, Morphius. He's great. We hated to lose him. He worked here from 2008 to 2011," that's all they need to hear. And if all you say is "Morphius was employed here from 2008 to 2011", the hiring employer knows how to interpret that as well. There's not much need for a more detailed conversation as long as everyone understands the code.

All about the questions you ask in a reference check, more specifically how you phrase the questions.
