Face it. When you work in the corporate world, there are certain things you have to do. You have to go to work regularly, for starters. For another thing, you have to wear a suit. You have to have piles of paperwork on your desk to make it look like you're doing something useful. Complaining just a little about the work you 'did' last night For the Good of the Company helps too.

Oh, and you have to go to meetings. You can't forget to do that. Better you forget to actually do the work you're assigned than forget to attend one of those meetings.

When you are at one of those meetings, it's best if you take notes. You'll want to know what stuff you should pretend to be doing the following week. Looking attentive is half the battle. The other half is remembering to bring your pen.

Ah, that pen. That is the one thing that doesn't have to be a certain way. Why not have a little bit of fun with the whole pen thing?  One of the most fun types of pen is the Crayola Crayon Executive Pen. These things are a hoot. The cool thing is that this pen actually has the heft of an expensive pen. It isn't just some cutesy little toy - it's a cutesy little toy and a great pen.

When you run out of ink, you can refill it with standard ballpoint pen refills. The pen costs only $15.99 and will make a great gift for your best office buddy, or for anyone, really. If you work in an artistic type of job, they probably won't notice your attempt to be goofy, however. Those places are like zoos to begin with.

Choose from one of eight classic colors. Red is the favorite, of course, but you can also have your pen in blue, green, yellow, orange, white, black and purple.
