If your job involves typing to any degree and you’re shit at it, your overall performance will suffer because typing will become a bottleneck to your productivity. If nothing else, typing fast means you can have more downtime in between tasks because you’re not spending all day hunt-and-pecking
I don’t know your age or your skill at typing but I can tell you look down on people who type with 2 fingers.
I have never learned to type correctly and have been using 2 fingers my whole life. Yes it’s slower than if I had learned but I have never felt slowed by it not have I ever been told my performance is lacking because of it. I don’t even really look at the keyboard anymore when I type because I memorized where the keys are. Much like you do on a phone I know where all the keys are and I type fast.
I know you can’t imagine it but hunt and peck would describe a person that had never seen a keyboard. That’s not how many people type.
