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

Retirement can wait my insurance cannot. Plenty of people are holding onto a job they meant to leave purely for the coverage, because the marketplace version now costs more than the freedom was worth, and the sixty-two-year-old in the tee has a retirement date she has pushed twice. Tying coverage to a paycheck was always going to end like this. This tee is worn to the job she is only keeping for the card.

Wear it to the office you were supposed to leave, the retirement planning seminar, the town hall on premiums, the union retiree meeting, and the family dinner where a relative asks when you are finally retiring. It is a strong gift for anyone job-locked for insurance, a benefits navigator, a union retiree officer, and the friend who pushed the date twice.

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 lines that read across a retirement planning seminar. 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 pushed-date entry in the healthcare 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.
