Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

Overworked and underpaid. Two more hours, none of the raise, and the warehouse worker in the tee got the new schedule and the old pay stub in the same week and put them on the break room table for everyone to see. Saying out loud what most workers already feel is where organizing starts. This tee says it in three words.

Wear it to the break room, the organizing meeting, the union drive, the minimum wage hearing, and the family dinner where a relative says be grateful you have hours. It is a strong gift for a warehouse worker, a union organizer, a scheduling-app casualty, and the friend who put the stub on the table.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three words that read across a break room table. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the break-room-table entry in the union and labor collection.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
