How can I add a variable to the end of a String field

[John H1]

I have a request to add a variable to the end of our Short Description variable.

I'm looking for something like Short Description: I want to add additional software to my laptop - Joe Jones

Joe Jones is a variable called "Requested For"

This is what I'm playing with to no avail.

current.short_description = "I want to add additional software to my laptop - " + producer.requested_for;

@John H1 Did you try the following.

current.short_description = "I want to add additional software to my laptop - " + producer.requested_for.first_name+' ' producer.requested_for.last_name;

@John H1 I suggested the same solution, but it wasn't marked as an accepted solution. May I know the reason?
