My Favorite Pen Has Been Banned! Help!!!!

Other than needing immediate withdrawal assistance from no longer being able to use my FAVORITE Pilot fine point gel ink pen on nursing notes, what do I do now?

I bought a Zebra 301 ball point pen, but the ink stopped flowing in the middle of a word in a nursing note. It feels like writing with a thin copper water pipe.

I need a pen that has the sweet feel of a Sarasa 7.0, the warmth of a Pilot G-2 or G-3. I threw the four dollars worth of Pilot Better Retractables out of the window on route 53.

My PENS have been banned due to their bleeding when a spot of moisture casts the pain of blotching on their legal documents.

Forget XANAX etc, what I need is a pen that won't bleed when hit with water. Help?!!
We need to get pagandeva in here to assist. She is the queen of pens!

Finepoint Sharpie, it's waterproof.Maybe you can get them south of the 49th?

When I volunteered at the AllNurses booth at an NSNA convention in Reno, I got a box full of AllNurses.com pens and I still use them. They're your regular ballpoint pens, but they write so smooth and don't spot when wet.

Nurses and their pens; some people just don't understand the "love affair" we have with them! I carry pens in both pockets; in one pocket I have the pens that I and only I use. In the other pocket, there are the pens that I let others use if they so need to. At the end of the shift, I wipe down my pens with alcohol wipes!That being said, I have an affinity for the Bic Atlantis pen. It is not thin or wide; just the right size for me. I have had a difficult time finding them as of late; when I do see them in a store, I pick up more than one pack. Somehow, one pen always gets lost in the shuffle at the end of the shift..like socks disappearing in the dryer!

I second the sharpies... they make a new retractable pen. It's pretty sharp. Look into the papermate profile. It writes like a stick o butter on hot toast. Good luck with your pen search. That really stinks. :/ Ivanna

My favorite pen is the Pental WOW. I stock pile them.... they look like a fine point but write as though they are a medium point. I highly recommend them.

My favorite pen is whatever VIAGRA gives out. hahaha - not even kidding. Once my VIAGRA pens are depleted, I'm screwed. pun intended...

Sharpie retractable is "da Bomb!" Guard them with your life! I had to threaten co-workers to stay away from mine. . . lol

Quote from lucky0220i just discovered the wonderful pilot g-2 gel 07 pen. is that the one you used? if it were me, i still would sneak around and use it. what are they going to do.....pen checks at the beginning of each shift??

I also have a pen fetish---let's all admit it;that's what it is---I LOVE the Papermate Profile 1.4B. It has very bold black ink and writes incredibly smooth.

I like the free pens we get from the organ donation center or the eye bank. They're triangle shaped, black, and always write wonderfully. Weird, I know.
