I took a job in 1985 and on the first day I was told 'our days were numbered". I was a copier tech, and even the company that hired me was going on about how we were entering a paperless society- everything would be on microfilm (Hee Hee) or hard drives. Twenty-eight years later, I retired from that same field, and in the last few years was building MASSIVE paper storage systems, because the paperless society was a joke.
So it can go both ways.
