Last week, to type a label. I use it at least once a month to fill in forms for grant applications.

I used one daily when I worked at my university bookstore. Actually, I've used a typewriter off and on for years.

Last Friday. I have an 80-year-young secretary who hates to use the computer for checks, so we use a typewriter for that. She's worked in this job for 18 years, so I figure I can let her have this one quaint thing! I had to type a check for payroll last Friday, since she was out of the office. I even had to change the ribbon, which took me a LONG time to figure out!

About 20 years ago I think....

though, there is a Smith/Corona portable with a stuck key under the guest room bed.

Haven't used one in years. Though my work has one and at night it sometimes types on it own.
