I was the same way, learned to type at 12 years old. Being a guitar player, it came to me really easy . I typed everything I could, all through high school, and college .
I cannot write cursive at all . Have not even tried in 25 years
I broke my right hand a few years back, and noticed that my writing slipped a little bit after that.
My signature has become a squiggly little line

My son's teacher complains about his handwriting.
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree....

I can read the OP's handwriting.
Good enough.

I had a doctor sign a document once with basically a line with a squiggle. I commented jokingly that isn't even close to a signature. He told me "I paid a lot of money to be able to do that". Touche.

I think the people skills of the State inspector(people of this calibre know they can get away with handing out sh-t) were worse than your hand writing. Saying nothing as you did diffuses the situation and you are good to go for another year.

If you had slapped him on the side of his head you would not need to worry about your handwriting anymore. For a while anyway.

I was in the garage and grabbed a small pad of post-its to make some notes to myself. It is pitiful how bad my handwriting is and how bad my hand writes what my brain wants to write. I finally just started over with the notes app on my iPhone. It is slower to type with one finer on an iPhone but at least it was legible.

From what I hear they don't even teach cursive in school anymore. I prefer to type.

Yep, I got called out on my spelling the other day here. Cracked me up too, cause if he had been trying to read my handwriting. It would have been a real reason to give me a hard time. Spell check is a help, as is typing

I can't read my own writing sometimes - unless I take my time to write neatly.
