Anyone use an iPad to take notes//use as a planner instead of paper? Considering making the switch but would have to invest in an Apple Pencil so wondering if it’s worth it.

I just got the iPad Air and the pencil 2 and thinking about trying to be “that” person for atleast the first week of the new year until I give up.

There are note taking apps that are pretty good and you can use any pencil like object with a touch pad thing. Not sure what the name of those things are but they work. Not sure what an Apple Pencil does but I used the note taking app and touchpad pencil fine through college.

Stylus pen* pretty cheap

I used an iPad + Apple Pencil for my last couple years of college and I’ve been using it for the CPA exams and I love it. Cannot recommend it enough. I used Notability for notes but I never tried to do a planner.

Majority of my department has been informed we will need to look for other positions internally due to our jobs being outsourced.

Since I can only work remotely for my company due to location, is it best to resign or to hold out in hopes for a transition to another department?
