  1. His name is Jerry something. I see the M two ds and ends in ly, but cannot make the surname out. Why he signed it upside down is a mystery. Possible misunderstanding or maybe because he is left handed he simply turned the paper incorrectly.

  9. The recruiter probably passed the paper across a table, Mr. Mooney signed on the dotted line without reading the document.
