We work as software engineers and my colleague works on a particular application for one of our clients and I shit you not the following happens regularly.

  • Colleague emails client with a change log for the latest publish.
  • Client prints off the email and annotates it with a pen.
  • Takes a photo of the printed out email.
  • Attaches it to his reply.

It's much faster to take a photo and immediately send it by email, or transfer it via bluetooth/airdrop to your computer.
