Why are you posting about the Titan sub in a thread about a Reddit community of transcribers that will be closing?

You’d think if it was important to them they might try to teach their kids themselves. Or have we defaulted to we can only learn things in school already?

also loopy signatures that have 1 big letter with a scribble behind it

Why you gotta call me out like that? Haha. But seriously, I had a proper signature until I got a part time office job at 17 that required me to sign a lot of things (for packages, receipts, witness acknowledgement, etc) every day - that’s on top of initialing things. I worked there 5-6 days a week before doing that same job full time for a few years and
eventually continued part-time for a few more years when I was in another career. Anyway, the point was that it was a fairly busy job and the extra few seconds my full, proper signature I had developed wasn’t an option and I slowly morphed my signature into a bastard hybrid between initials and signature that has remained some 20 years later. Also, I ditched the loopy first letter.
