I was just about to say that I just press 0, *, and # over and over until I get a person. And sometimes that person catches an earful of my rage, but I don't feel bad because they chose to answer phones for a living.

I don't know that faxing is the worst.
I'd say email is to faxing what radio is to ham.

I work at a law firm. So depending on how far a case dates back to we still deal with old tech. We have a Sony 3.5" floppy drive that connects via USB. We have even thought about trying to find 5.25" floppy to USB.
