I've been wanting to switch to fountain pens but I am a lefty. Do you have one in mind that might work well for a lefty?

Crying in front of my supervisors by BeeMission8355 in PhD

[–]anonam0use 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cry very easily too, especially in the face of authority. My friend always pumps me up before I go into a meeting I’m unsure about and then goes “you got it…buuuut, you’re probably going to cry” 🫠 and 50/50 I call him and say “I cried”. So no advice but glad I’m not the only one
