By the way; it's not really "crossword puzzles", but more like doing crossword puzzles in your without ever writing anything down and without looking at clues again once you have the word.

So after Cal v Hawaii drew a crowd, apparently the "Sydney Cup" is now a thing in CFB. This year we get Stanford v Rice. I first learned of the existence of "Rice" when they were scheduled to play this game. Will be interesting to see whether they can keep drawing crowds for random meaningless games.

For a senior person reporting to CEO in a professional field? Yes.
That's why I asked what field he was in. We give three weeks to entry level FTE

I just went through airport domestic travel security in Rio, 8 lines, zero wait, shoes on (how disgusting is the shoes off thing?) no ID check (they do this at the gate....usually) and the officer screening my bag never once bothered to look at the X-ray screen....something in the distance was more interesting. #brazilthings.

Did not mention vacation days.

Does anyone start with 4 weeks? Senior position reporting to CEO in a 45 person company.

If they said 2 weeks the first year, do you bump up your salary requirements?

Company merging. I'm going from 23 to 21 days so they're grossing up my salary.
