You and I live similar lives in different places.
There are people in my office that print out their emails to read at their desk, right in front of their computer.
Collaborative document editing has been around for over a decade, and yet we’re still emailing each other different versions of docs.
Yup, I had someone print off Excel sheets, manually highlight and write in corrections, and them bring the pages over to my desk to have me fix them in the file.
I also once had the city reject a report I submitted because the width of the columns in the Excel file were different from the previous year and they wanted to print it all off on one page.
Pure hell
