Do your job we don't all have printers

Am so sick and tired of being expected to do people's jobs for them. Just got an email asking me to print out this 30 page contract thingy saying I need to print it and sign it and get it witnessed and post it back within 5 days. Why can't they post it to me? I don't mind signing things electronically but it will cost me a lot to get all that printed . It's just happening more and more not just printing but everything you try and do you have to download an app or fill in loads and loads of stuff and just so time consuming. Anyone else finding this.

Yes! I am always amazed that companies expect homes to all have printers, even when they are possibly the most notorious bit of "tech" for breaking down. I have bought 5 printers and none have lasted more than 2 years and I simply refuse to buy another and have the space taken up and cost of ink. I feel the same about it as you - just another way to pass on the cost and work to the customer.

Yes!!! I have had 2 printers both broken now and I'm not buying another one.

Depends what the contract is for really. If you don’t have a printer can you contact them and tell them that and ask them to send you a copy in the post?
