Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Sign:___________ Date:_________

(The date is already printed elsewhere on the receipt)

Well here is where my PhD in tracking stuff on paper, which gets handed out in triplicate to every German child at birth, comes in handy. The signature line customarily includes the date again because printing date and signing date (and thus validity) might differ. And yes, I know this is not applicable in a restaurant (hopefully), but that's generally the reason when it occurs.

I mean, it should not be hard to program the printer to put the date on the signature line as well, the date does not need to be handwritten.
