Has anyone ever kept a biro long enough to run out of ink? I'm pretty sure the ink's unlimited and we just lose them.

Also, dental floss.

They last forever at home but at work they seem to run out at a fast rate and I have to search high and low for a new one because no one ordered any as usual.

Years ago (the early 70's), my auntie worked in an office whereby she could only get a new Biro from the cupboard if you brought back the empty one!

There's a scene in Mindhunter showing BTK enforced a similar policy at work, so maybe your auntie had a lucky escape.
