Usually PDF, though occasionally I see them in Word. I'd go with the former.

PDF helps you avoid unfortunate changes if the recipient has a different set up than you.

You might want to check university website job postings. They don't tend to pay as well as corporate, but they can be pretty steady (especially if they have a good endowment) and enjoyable, with good benefits. The University of Chicago or NorthWestern might have something.

Was browsing more webcams, looked in on Hollywood Blvd. Superman was striding down the sidewalk, cape billowing in the breeze.

Sorry about the job situation, Tom.

I forgot to check the bottle of ibuprofen I packed, and just discovered it's almost empty. The 24 pill bottle I just bought at an airport kiosk was $12.

Yeah, id go with pdf for a resume.

Is there a word for when you have to change your password and then keep putting the old one in because you are so used to it? There should be.

This happened to me at Midway recently and at two separate kiosks they had no painkillers at all that weren't nighttime version. I ended up taking an alka seltzer I had in the bottom of my bag.

Oy. And nobody sells contact lens solution at O'Hare so the best you can get is eye drops for $9.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My apartment is being re-wired, which doesn't seem to be overly intrusive? I guess it's because my mother was also doing work in her kitchen, but her whole place was a disaster for a month. ANYWAY, I've met the lead electrician guy, and I thought he was American, but now I think maybe I just don't remember his accent, because what he's left in my kitchen are tea bags and evaporated milk. That's not an American, right??

My reliably amusing co-workers are being incensed at each other at the combination of chicken and mayo on sandwiches. "It's a sandwich! It's not like I'm eating it with a fork, or something!" "Still! Dude!"

{{{tommyrot}}} It's good to see you, sorry about the job situation.

Oh, I need that word. Not clever enough today.

Some places specify Word .docs in their application process, but I don't know how prevalent that is. I'm remembering that it was places that would let you upload a resume but then ask you to fill in basically all the same information in their required form, so I hope that all of that is less common than it was.
