$2.99 to open a word document!

It cost me over $10.00 to print 6 pages (3 files for a resume, cover letter and application form)

You've gotta be fscking kidding me!

They have this new invention called the public library.

I didn't have time to get to the library.

You're paying for convenience. And it comes at a great price. Next time, make time.

A cheap laser printer?

I think I got my Samsung laser for about $20-30 after rebate. Still kicking with its original toner cartridge 1+ year now.

don't forget paper... altho, i dunno how important paper quality is for resumes these days. I remember my dad would get the cool cotton paper or something. everything is just submitted PDF/DOC it seems like these days.

altho, obviously not for the OP... but at 10 cents, I presume it was normal copy paper
