28. Not a fan of the fax, at this particular moment in time.

I hand carried my FMLA forms to two different doctor's offices - they refused to take them. They would only accept them by fax. We actually have a fax - and a land line. BUT we abandoned long distance on the land line a long time ago - and the doctor's offices are long distance.

In this day and age, limiting functional communication to fax only is not appropriate, since very few ordinary individuals are likely to have access to a fax machine - especially when your clients come from all over the world (the Cleveland Clinic).
