This is a disclaimer:
When I was in my pre-school years, I have this book for a better handwriting, from bold letters to script. From time to time, I always practice by penmanship. From then on, I became the class secretary from grade school to college...actually not much in high school. Anyway, to make my story short, we Filipinos are trained to have a good penmanship. It may not be a very good one but it can be understood. Why I'm telling this.... I work in a data center in a bank which works on more on check processing. So I see all those captured images of a check and make sure all the details are correct. But the hardest thing was you can't understand the handwriting, the 6 can be a 4 or 0. You have to read the amount in words instead the figures will do. I will know if I got the wrong number if my batches are not balance. Then how they spell the words... i saw this one instead of "forty", its "fourty". And they don't use the thousand, its a hundred, like for "$1,600" its sixteen hundred. Anyway, im not criticizing or insulting anyone.. i just want to express my thoughts here.
Good times together
