No such thing as too many beets, I’m afraid

Proud lad from Jutland here: in our dialect we do use “the” in “æ”.

So this is some bullshit going on in America? Where I live the contract is signed ahead of time with a specific start date, so this signing an offer (which sounds like nothing more than a pinky promise) and then a contract on the first day is new knowledge to me.
