Yeah, but I think it was a miscommunication. The contract was sent over text with “please confirm the contract”, but he was expecting a fax to sign and the thumbs up was a confirmation that he would sign it once he got it. Maybe I don’t know enough but I do kinda have to side with the farmer on this one.
Edit: ok I read a bit more, maybe not as this article mentions that they’ve previously confirmed messages over text. Idk
This is what I don't like about Teams on my android phone. There is no "Mark Read" button on the notification. It's either reply or like or open the app.
That seems like the correct ruling. Any reasonable person would think that a thumbs up emoji equates to "yes", "good", "affirmative" or any other word of agreement. Trying to get out of a contract because you used an emoji is a complete dick move.
