| Topic | when will older folks stop acting like great handwriting is required for life? |
| Zeus 02/09/18 1:38:57 PM #20: | And here I thought NMB had finally vanished. =x InfestedAdam posted... I can see bad handwriting being a potential issue Yeah, bad handwriting can be a pretty issue. While there's less use for handwriting today, being able to jot down a note you can read later (a major problem for me), etc, is still very important. Plus great penmanship is a skill unto itself which people appreciate. NightMareBunny posted... yeah but what I mean is that despite all of that the older generation doesn't seem to accept that doing everything by pen and paper is horribly outdated when it comes to doing one's business You know that typewriters were a thing for like a century, right? It's not like pen & paper have been the *only* way people did everything. Businesses would hire skilled typists. However, that didn't mean that handwriting wasn't important then and now. Mead posted... They spent so much time teaching us to write in cursive when I was in school Yeah, that I never really got. And, frankly, I have a hard enough time reading most peoples' print handwriting, cursive just makes it more likely to be sloppy and illegible. wwinterj25 posted...
