Thing Engineers Like: Messy Writing

Like doctors, it seems like most engineers have terrible writing. I'm the perfect example since the sand writing above is probably the neatest I can possibly write. Yes, I'm one of the rare people in this world that actually writes in cursive (It is once in a leap year that write in "print". It's been a leap year.). It's unbelievable that some schools have stopped teaching cursive in elementary school; this is going to make reading old original documents even harder (think the Declaration of Independence)!
Good thing engineers of the past invented the computer and the popularization of type-fonts have exponentially increased; otherwise we would be forced to read appalling handwriting. And it's just not words that have been saved, there are numbers, formulas, and diagrams. As we all know, brilliance doesn't wait so one must write as much as one can before that state of mind is disrupted. As a consequence, the work (numbers/equations/formulas) are nearly possible to understand to anyone besides the author. Majority of the time, I felt like I spent more time explaining my work than actual time spent on doing it.
But don't be fooled by the magnificent work, it was probably written messly due to procrastination (which happens as much as a person goes #2; nearly once a day). It is no surprise since the characteristics of handwriting can reflect one's personality.
But I have to credit to the rare engineers with great handwriting; nearly like a typewriter. From experience, they either have superior or hideous handwriting.
Just look at those signatures!
