What became of the
paperless society?
Remember those days when
people told us that we were going to have a paperless society, what happened?
It seems like we use do more paperwork on actual paper then we did years ago.
I sign up for everything
paperless, not for any environmental reason, but it’s just easier for me and
also If things are sent to my computer, it’s just easier for me to save those
items without scanning them to my computer. But I don’t know why we use so much
paper. Everyone has smart phones, so all their information is there and with
e-mail, this seems to be the time that we can actually be a paperless world or
at least use less paper then we used to.
I am always amazed when I
go to a fast food place and they give me 2 receipts, why? It makes no sense. In
my business of Property Management in Anaheim CA. My industry is notorious for
using paper with contracts and disclosures and most of the paperwork no one
reads. Why can’t all this just be kept on a computer, all of us just scan all
the paperwork anyway and keep in on a computer, why print it all out?
There are many people who
will not read anything on a computer or Smartphone screen, when it comes to the
small screen of the phone, I understand, and I also understand printing things
when necessary, but most of the things we get in a hard paper form is not
something we will ever read and all we need to do is archive it, just in case we
may need it in the future and it is much easier finding a piece of paper from
our computer than it is finding a piece of paper we filed in our file cabinet 10 years ago.
I think one reason that we
still over use paper, is that the tree growers have become so efficient in
growing tree’s that there are an abundance, and we have more tree’s now than we
have ever had in this Country. That has kept paper cheap and much easier for us
to use enormous amounts of paper. In California, just a few years ago stopped using
paper bags and turned to plastic, now the politicians have reversed and are
going back to paper bags for silly reasons but is so funny how politicians
change their minds as the political winds change.
It does not look like we
will be a paperless society any time soon, so keep the printer ink ready to go.
