Can I say a contract is effective as of 3/1 if I'm just signing it today?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Our company went through a big reorg at the beginning of the year (something we seem to do every 3-4 years). I met my three-levels-up boss today. Though, my direct boss is still an empty box on the org chart. Fun. Couldn't tell if they have a plan on filling that position or if we are going to be left on our own.
Not fun.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Cosmo is a spaz and meows/growls/purrs a lot. Gimlet is a tortie, and talks quite a lot when you pay attention to her, but doesn't do much random noises like Cosmo.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Mmm. Cats.
Man, I skipped a whole chunk of training and we're still on boring stuff.

I got my Secret Santa present today! A box from Bangkok (heh, always a 12 y.o. boy with that one) with awesome goodies.
Fay is, as always, made of WIN.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
WHY DOES MY BOSS ANSWER HER OFFICE PHONE WITH JUST "HELLO!"?????
I have been wondering about this. I have been answering with just "Hello," but I suppose I could provide more information right up front.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
A very cool watch: By all that is holy and miserable, I want this watch and will never own it
Watch designer Thomas Prescher has worked out how to make every hair on my neck stand up in eerie synchrony with this Flying Double-Axis Tourbillion, a transparent, self-winding watch with integrated calendar that I will never, ever be able to afford. All the gubbins are tucked away in the sides of the watch, leaving just the instrumentation parts on display, in a kind of flippant "screw-you-I-am-miniature-FEAR" gesture to every other watch's workings. Watches like this are what I dream about when I am dreaming about watches.

I tend to answer with "This is Suzi" since calls to my office line have either come through the receptionist who already announced the company, or was direct dialed which means the person should know who they are calling.
Then there are the times I answer my cell with "This is Suzi", normally when I forget to check who is calling. From there it usually goes downhill.
