As a kid, I worked in the family lumber yard and helped my father and grandfather at the drafting board. It was second nature to me to use an ink pen for invoices and a pencil for everything else, always printing.
In high school, senior comp or some class like that, I was downgraded by the teacher for using a pencil and printing. I was told, "you'll never survive college." Joke's on her, as I went to an engineering school where everyone used a pencil and printed.
But, that was a couple of years ago. It just occurred to me, though, I can't remember the last time I saw a handwritten note (other than from my grandmother) in cursive.
Does anyone write any more (excluding signatures)?
