Co-Worker Borrowed My Pen

[marcelo]

Fountain pens may have been the mainstay years ago, but they are now a specialized item. And they are very personal. You don't ask lightly to borrow your coworker's cell phone or car - may seem like a fountain pen is different but I would argue that these days, they are similarly personal.

 

MANY years ago.

 

Regarding my cell phone, I don't mind borrowing it, but I would do if it was my car or, especially, one of my fountain pens.

That's precisely why my fountain pens don't get lent out to people unless I know they know how to use a proper pen and how to respect someone else's property.

 

I wouldn't stress over the ink. He threw your pen. He deserves a little ink splatter on his shirt.

 

In fact, I would have secretly wished to myself that the ink was a permanent ink.
