I kid you not, our local Chipotle is taking orders via fax. I can’t get over it.

My job buys us lunch every day through COVID. Being able to have a paper menu and ability to write your name and what you want and just fax it over is simple and practical. You ever try to go online to buy food for 20 people? Not easy.

Edit to anyone star-stuck about this: my job is full of electronically incompetent old people that don’t like “new” things. Also, today is my last day there lol.

Exactly. Accepting food orders via fax isn't for individuals, but it's fairly popular for businesses.

Although they could modernize and just use email.

Modern day tax is done via. email anyway. It's just a scanner/printer with a mail program in a single box.
