Heard a guy at the lumber yard say he never uses a speed square for layout

Said he just marks with a tape and pencil. That's how you get a wall that's out of square by a quarter inch over eight feet. Anyone else run into this kind of corner cutting?

My old boss swore by the tape method until a whole room of cabinets wouldn't fit. I keep a speed square in my pouch now.

A quarter inch over eight feet is a huge gap. That guy's walls must be wavy as heck.
