Four out of five companies in Europe's largest economy continue to use fax machines. But Germany's parliament has until the end of June to stop relying on the antiquated communication technology.
When I started my apprenticeship as assistant tax adviser in 2016, I used the fax regularly to send stuff to the IRS equivalent.
I was also in charge of printing certain thing because the setup for those to come out right was unholy.
In the company I am in now, we are pushing for digital solutions but still have a lot of clients with a listed fax number.
One of our digital partners had fax: we don’t do that here written in their signature.
I didn’t expect it to be this high… But I guess it’s not unrealistic. My job doesn’t expose me to them at all.

It is a thing still sadly.
