- oh, he knows. -- nm - Andie Jul 7, 11:57
How many pens does that get you? -- nm - Ender Jul 7, 11:35 14

- $400 got 100 pens. So, 300 would be.... carry the 1... remove the bulk discount.... 25. They get 25 pens. -- nm - sycor Jul 7, 11:37
- zero pens. it's go-away money. -- nm - Andie Jul 7, 11:37 11
  - so does this mean you can't send all of us a pen ? -- nm - decline Jul 7, 11:58 7
    - ST pens! -- nm - ty97 Jul 7, 11:59 3
      - i miss my beloved HSX pen. -- nm - Andie Jul 7, 12:00 2
        
        Yeah, I actually threw out some of my HSX schwag last weekend. - Spawn Jul 7, 12:01 1

    - alas, i cannot. -- nm - Andie Jul 7, 11:59 2
      - aw crap, I had just cancelled our Staples order thinking we were going to be flush with Canadian pens. -- nm - Max Jul 7, 12:00 1
        
        Doesn't the ink come out backwards or something? -- nm - Spawn Jul 7, 12:01
  - Nah, now YOU start calling him 10 times a day asking where your bleeping pens are. -- nm - Ender Jul 7, 11:42 2
    - hey, he won't have time for drugs if he's too busy processing pen orders. -- nm - Max Jul 7, 11:44
    - heh -- nm* - Beaker Jul 7, 11:42
Your boss has a big heart. I'm sad that your boss sat and thought and had concern for this guy. -- nm - Epiphany Jul 7, 11:33
wow. -- nm - Diva Jul 7, 11:29 7
- Her boss sending $300 is like me sending a dime, though. -- nm - Spawn Jul 7, 11:37 6
  - I'm not judging the amount of money or that it was sent at all. Just saying wow. - Diva Jul 7, 11:38 3
    - I second the wow and the IM -- nm - ty97 Jul 7, 11:55 2
      - it's just so prevalent and difficult and more and more people have to deal with it. it's really hard to know what to do. -- nm - Diva Jul 7, 11:59 1
        
        Yup. Addiction is an illness. - ty97 Jul 7, 12:00
  - oh, it's nothing dollar-wise. he just knows what it's going to be spent on, and that's what he didn't want to support. -- nm - Andie Jul 7, 11:38 1
    - Ah. As I noted below, I had missed this until this board. -- nm - Spawn Jul 7, 11:38
*calls 40 times a day rather than 20 going forward* -- nm* - Beaker Jul 7, 11:29 2
- No he'll stop calling. Until next time he needs a fix or owes money or whatever the issue really is. -- nm - sycor Jul 7, 11:32 1
  - i think he'll call again. but i think it will take a long time. and - Andie Jul 7, 11:33
