Dont't You Just Hate Filling Out Forms?

I mean, you do it again and again everywhere - at school, in the bank, at work. There are various forms that we need to fill out with our names, SSS numbers and Tax Identification Numbers. I just hate doing this simple thing, and wish I could just say a magic spell that would finish it for me. How about you, do you enjoy this routine?

Oh man, I know what you're talking about. It especially sucks when opening accounts in banks--I usually fill out up to 3 of the same 4-page, small-font forms! I wish we only needed to fill one out and they just scan it so they can have more copies or something. Or let us do it by computer so it's much easier and faster.

I agree with you; it is an irritant. For hard copy you can not help much. I have got rubber stamps made for name and addresses and it helps in filling hard copies of forms. But on computer, I mean soft copy forms, you could keep the information that is generally required on one page and use copy and paste method to reduce your work load.

Yes, they can be annoying, I agree. For this one job I spent three hours filling out paperwork, really I was ready to scream! Many forms are short, but those forms were so long. Have a nice day. Pablo

that's is the reason why i don't vote. i was register voter way up to last election (can't remember that time is) and when suddenly i checked on my name if what precint i will vote too i happened to be that I'm not registered voter at all but it happened to be that me and my sister registered our name and vote for the last election. and this recent election happens my sister vote and i don't for i have to redo all I've been thru registering my name all the stufu things like that again. i wish our government comes to the idea how things brought up online so we dont get to bother ourselve getting up earlier and going to some-else where.

We actually have no choice at all but to fill it up. We'll never get in if we're not gonna follow their policy. That's life ! ^_*

It is a chore, thats for sure. Although, I remember at my first week at university, all the forms were so similar that I could just do them on autopilot. I've filled out so many forms in the past two years, I remember all the details off hand! Like my national insurance number, and that. x

I hate that too. How I wish that we can just bring an ID and all we need to do is to swipe the card and the form will be automatically filled with all our relevant information. That would be the day!

I have never like to fill forms especially some where you don't know what they want.
