Do You Have To Fax Information? Have You Been Told To Fax Info?  

Yes I have faxed many times. I have a friend who lives close by who has a fax machine because of her business. My youngest daughter has a fax machine/printer/copier but she lives far away from me. I normally go up the road and have it done there at a store that also sends packages for you. Last time we had to fax anything my husband took it to work with him and the girl in the office did it for him.

I have a big ol clunky fax machine that we never use anymore. My husband has one at his work, if we need to use one. Most times places will offer an email now too!

Hi chevee~When I was actively looking for a job many years
ago I had that very same problem. At that time faxing was
the only way to send a resume to apply for a job. So
I had to buy a fax machine because I asking people
to fax my resumes for me all the time and waiting until
they were able to do it or having to go somewhere and fax
it myself and there was a faxing fee. Then a few years later
everything started to change and it became emailing resumes
to the jobs directly. And at that time I didn't have a
computer! So I think now it is both emailing and faxing
resumes for job applicants to apply for jobs.

Hi Chevee,


I used to have a fax machine years ago but now I don't and no one use fax these days, when I was working three years ago I had to use the fax at work, don't know if they still use that old machine, these days its all e-mail, now I think fax is the thing of the past and I have never been told to fax anything recently. Hugs.

Hi, There is a fax machine on my computer but I have no idea how to use it & yes, I have been asked to fax things. We do have a separate fax though. Since we have a separate fax machine now, i will probably never be asked to fax anything ever again..you know how that goes!

yes i have chevee many times. i write them back and say hay, i dont drive and i dont have a fax machine. they then proceed to tell me to snail mail the stuff. I used to have a fax machine but it was old and didnt work right, im not really interested in faxing anyhow.

Like you, I have been asked to fax information several times. It seems that some people who work in offices, just assume that everyone owns a fax. I don't. However, I can send faxes from the local post office at the cost of $2 per page. While that is a little expensive when a fax only costs the same as a phonecall (about 55 cents here), sometimes it is worth it for the convenience.

I have been told to fax information before and no I don't own a fax machine. I've always been told to go to Staples and pay to have it faxed. I used to go to work and use their fax, now I send things to work with my fiance.

I've frequently been required to fax information whether it be for work or personal. Many places offer faxing services for a small fee, form libraries to walk-in local businesses.

Failing that it is still perfectly feasible to fax via the internet.

My husband's job requires him to fax any orders he made every night, he is a salesman for a major carpet company. In the beginning we did not have a fax machine, and really could not afford to buy one. His friend who doesn't live too far would let him use his. Then another friend of his, said he had a fax that he did not use anymore and gave it to us. It is a hugh fax machine, that we have in our living room on the floor, because we have no where to put such a big machine. It serves our purpose though, even though I have to fax one sheet at time, because the rollers do not work properly.
So, the answer to your question, is yes, I do have a fax machine at home.
When I was working, it was not a problem, because I would bring anything I needed to fax to work and do it from there.
