    @Saka Everyone writes little by hand these days, I'm afraid. Although, I do not own a smartphone, so I may do it a bit more than others. But I do not like pens and ink, so I am using Pentel automatic 0.9mm pencil.

    @DoctorEldritch I don't actually write much on the phone, mainly the computer.

    When I had classes at the campus I would write notes using Apple Pencil on an iPad. So basically normal handwriting, just easier to keep the notes in one place that way.

    @Saka Your lettering is good. I won't even come close. My handwriting is atrocious! Thanks, it looks cool! 😊

    @DoctorEldritch @Saka I'm a lefty so I am literally a pen pusher. 😊 My handwriting got worse because of using the keyboard all the time.

    @DoctorEldritch When I was employed in the medical field I had to learn to read a few doctors' handwriting. Most had illegible handwriting and it was a mission to make out what they'd written.

    It took a while to analyse their scribble and eventually I become a pro at distributing the medicine they prescribed.

    @DracoTarot There is a Russian sketch about a group of pharmacists who were trying to solve a crossword puzzle and were saying stuff like "a drug to cure headache, 7 letters, the first one is A" and helping each other with versions like Aspirin and the like. And the punchline was that, in the end, you find out that it was not a crossword puzzle they were trying to solve, but a prescription note from a doctor. Sadly, I could not find that video with Eng subtitles, only in Russian. But your story reminded me of it.

    @DoctorEldritch The sketch does sound familiar. Oh, how I miss the days I worked in the medical industry. I had a lot of fun until the doctors and the labs were privatized. Everything became a rat race.
