I write checks all the time at stores that require you to sign your name on a electronic pad. Also do the same with credit/debit cards. Some place accept a PIN, others require a signature.

My wife used to brag about the fact that she could not type. It kept her from being assigned jobs that required it. Later in life she was a cripple because she could not touch type, computers came along and hunt and peck is sure slow.

Cursive still has it’s place. If you don’t believe me, try to buy or sell real property without a cursive signature.

Right handed teachers don’t know how to properly teach a lefty to write. They teach us lefties to angle our paper the same direction as right handers do - to the left at about an 11 o’clock position. Well, duuuuh, of course lefties are forced to turn their wrists that weird way and write upside down. Simply position your paper to a 1 o’clock position and ta-da! The wrist will be straight and relaxed and you can go years without anyone noticing your lefthanded.
