I swear I probably misplace 1-3 black or blue pens a day. So since I've worked here a while, the office should have many black or blue pens lying around. But no! Everytime I look for a pen its red, and then off to the storage room I go again. And I'm not the only one at my workplace who thinks so too. So the conclusion we've reached after our initial investigation:

Some gremlin is stealing our pens, or some warlock is changing them to red. :shocked:

Maybe someone you work with has some psychological problem with collecting and hording black and blue pens...

edit: setup a web cam with some pens in front of it and try to see who is doing it. Hide the cam a bit though...

Maybe someone is running a pen exchange, and trades people's red pens for a more office memo friendly colour pen.
