Taxing Faxing, Part 32

, , , , , , | Working | April 20, 2022

My mother tells this story of her “horrible” boss:

Boss: “Fax a report to [number].”

Mom took the document immediately to the fax machine, loaded it up, dialed the number, and walked away. After a few minutes, she heard the chirp indicating it was done. She got distracted by other responsibilities and hadn’t cleared the fax machine when the boss came back into the office, screaming:

Boss: “I TOLD YOU I NEEDED THAT FAXED IMMEDIATELY!”

Mom: *Quietly.* “I did fax it.”

Boss: “WELL IT’S STILL THERE!”

Apparently, the boss fully expected the documents to be physically teleported to the other office like something out of ‘Star Trek.’
