Avoid Office Embarrassment
Imagine being in an important meeting with your boss. You’re jotting down notes, and all of a sudden, the cheap pen you picked up from the dollar store splatters everywhere, getting blue or blank ink all over your work shirt, tie, and everyone else’s documents. That’s definitely not going to help you land your next promotion.
Just like school supplies, you have to avoid buying office supplies at the dollar store for the exact same reason. You wouldn’t want your materials falling apart at your desk, or during meetings with colleagues or even clients that you need to impress. It’s worth it to spend the extra few bucks for supplies you can rely on.
