National Bring Your Pens Back to Work Day

SYRACUSE, Indiana - August 22, 2008 - U4 has chosen to mark the 4th Friday of August as National Bring Your Pens Back to Work Day. Rich Hays, Director of Marketing, said, “It is that time of year again, when we remind everyone to bring pens back to work” The idea is simple; bring all pens you accidentally took home over the last year back to work. Ben Plikerd, President U4, “I know I am guilty of sticking a pen in my pocket, it just happens, that is why I offer amnesty for returning pens. We take pens home all the time just like you end up with pens from the bank. You don’t start out your day planning to collect pens; you pick it up, use it, then the next thing you know it is in your pocket or purse. When you get home, you clean out your purse or empty your pockets.” Plikerd continued, “After last year’s Pen Amnesty Day, our pens were not returned, but I had so many other pens given to me it was nuts.” U4 hopes setting a day to call attention to this issue will make people take action and return the pens. Bill Rondeau, CFO U4, said, “While we did not get the pens we purchased back, we received enough pens that we did not need to purchase more.”
