Once you have signed a contract, all of the vital decisions are
theirs. They hold all the trump cards. The myth of course, is that
if they violate the terms of the contract you can sue them. It is a
myth because it takes a lot of money to sue an individual
successfully and a ton of money to sue a company successfully and
that brings me to the second hard truth about companies. No company
is ever going to pay you enough money to sue them successfully.

It's important to read that. Never mind if you aren't in the Comics

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
