People need pens more often than you’d think and you can be their hero. They’re nigh indestructible in a bag or pocket and the thick ink will write on many things a normal ballpoint pen can’t. I’ve written on ceramic, glass, wet cardboard, and one time (in the 90’s) high school cafeteria roast beef.
The only downside is that if you damage the tiny ball in the ballpoint pentip and then don’t use the pen again for a while, the sticky ink can ooze out and make a mess inside the lid.
