[QUOTE="Mad_Jack, post: 9880688, member: 6750306"] My job has us constantly signing things (sign the current job paperwork, sign up for OT, sign the new "Training" sheet that states they changed a typo in the previous one, put your initials in seventeen different spots on this page, etc...), and so I started wondering about how each of us signs our names... So, how do you sign your name? Is it neat and legible? Is it all in Cursive? Block print? Some random combination of both? Are some letters connected and others not? Do you add flourishes to your letters? Is it generic-looking, or can people that know you recognize it as yours just by the way you write it? (If anyone mentions they dot their "i"'s with hearts, I'll be blocking you, lol) For myself, I rarely sign anything the same way twice. The more I'm in a rush, the less legible it gets. Generally, the Capital letters are written in nice clear Cursive, but then the lowercase ones start out neat at the beginning of the name and eventually just train off into random squiggles by the end of it. Quite often when something requires me to sign it, I'll simply initial it instead, since I've been using a unique rune-like symbol as my initials (ST) since junior high - [ATTACH type="full" width="23px" size="47x57"]432558[/ATTACH]... I only ever make an effort to sign my name clearly when it's an important document like gov't stuff. (On a side note, whenever I write a double "T" (words like kettle, etc.) I always write it as a [I]pi [/I]symbol instead...) Feel free to drift off into tangents about spelling and punctuation if you want as well. [/QUOTE]
