Electrician List #1: What People Called the Sharpies

A list of the different things people called the Sharpies we used to mark measurements, etc, over the weekend, and who said it.
  • "Sharpie" - Blaine, Austen
  • "Pen" - Ragan
  • "Magic Marker" - Gary (aka Dad's best friend), Derek
  • "Marksalot" - Dad
This is the first in a (potential) series of posts regarding our two (so far) weekends as electricians working on my parents' new house.

During weekend #3, I heard a lot of "felt tip pens" being used. Mostly by old men that are not me.
