lol I remember my teachers always saying "you won't always have a calculator on you" in the 90's and even then I had one of those calculator wrist watches from Casio.
And I still suck at math without one so they kinda had a point, they just didn't make it very well.
My teacher said the same thing. To this day, there is a Casio scientific calculator in my pickup truck, one in my backpack and one in my tool bag, I also never leave the house without my smart phone and I usually carry some kind of Linux laptop or tablet with me on any significant mission.
Hah! I had a calculator watch too - and I'm certain it got me my first girlfriend when I was 11!
You're right about that exact argument being used widely, I certainly was told I'd never have a calculator with me. Little did they know.
