Screw Faxing!

Today I decided to cancel my fax line, so I called up AT&T and had them cancel the line. Funny side note: When the call went through, he stated "Thank you for calling AT&T, my name is Mike and I'd like to tell you about our high speed DSL service." Then it got quiet. I said "ok" and still nothing. After a few more awkward seconds of silence, he said "uhm, can I help you?" I was too confused to ask why I wasn't being told about their DSL.

Anyways, fax is stupid. First of all, some stupid phone technician had changed the wiring of my fax line and connected my line to another phone number. So as I was paying the $40 a month for the (818) 240-4014 number, I wasn't even able to receive any faxes. Not that there were any. In the 7 months or so of having a fax line, I have used it exactly 2 times, both of which involved sending.

Now I'm just going to connect the fax machine to my phone line and fax out whenever I want. If, for some insanely odd reason, someone does need to fax me, I'll just wait for it and accept the ring.

Stay tuned for my next adventure: hiring a designer / programmer!
