Should you dress up for Halloween at work?

Sure you should, just do it right.

Halloween is my favorite holiday!  You can celebrate Halloween with family, friends and even co-workers if you do so properly.

Here is an article with some sound advice, some that I may actually take myself.

Flu Shots

I'm getting my flu shot today, thanks to Berger & Montague, my firm arranges for the flu shots to come to us every year.

I get a flu shot every year, and if you don't you need to read this blog post from Medscape.  It doesn't matter that you don't work in healthcare, if you live among humans you need to get a flu shot.

This post is hilarious and informative.

I recently wrote a paper on pandemic flu and although this post says the flu, the regular, run of the mill flu KILLS 20,000 people a year, I would argue that the latest statitics state that the flu KILLS 36,000 people a year.

Interviewing Tips

I found this "Tips for Interviewing" at the Glaxosmithkline website.  I believe that it applies to all jobs.  It's very short but very informative.

The first tip was most interesting... reread your resume.
