Used to print out every resume for interviews, now it's all digital
Back in 2014, I would bring three paper copies to every interview in Cleveland. Now I just have a tablet open with the same file and it feels weird but nobody asks for paper anymore. Anyone else miss the feeling of handing over a crisp printed page?

You ever drop a stack of papers on the table and see the interviewer actually pick one up and start reading? That tangible moment is gone now. Digital is cleaner, cheaper, and easier to carry around. But those paper copies gave me something to do with my hands when I got nervous. Now I'm just staring at a glowing screen hoping the battery holds up. Progress is progress, but some of the old rituals had their own weird value.
