Not My Department Dude Tee

The Not My Department Dude Tee from Unethical Threads is the verbal shrug in shirt form. Four words, zero guilt, complete serenity. You heard the problem, acknowledged it exists, and are choosing to do absolutely nothing about it.

Who actually wears this?

Everyone who has ever been approached with someone else's problem and felt absolutely nothing. Retail workers, IT helpdesk people, warehouse crews, night shift survivors, office workers who sit near the printer and therefore "must know how to fix it."

If you have ever been asked something because you happened to be standing there, the Not My Department Dude Tee is your uniform. It is also one of the rare pieces from our catalogue you can actually wear to work without getting a meeting invite from HR. No profanity, no graphic imagery. Just four words of polite, sarcastic disengagement.

• Heavyweight cotton that does not go see-through after three washes.
• Unisex relaxed fit, S to 4XL. Fits the new hire and the person who has been there since the building had a different name.
• Crew neck. Classic. No weird collar situations.
• DTG printed so the color holds. The message should outlast your patience.
• Available in black or white. Pick whichever matches your Monday outlook.

Is this a good coworker gift?

It is a great coworker gift. Secret Santa, white elephant, last day, first day, or just "I saw this and thought of you because you never help anyone and you seem fine with it."

Works for the IT person who responds to every ticket with a redirect. Works for the retail worker who has achieved inner peace at the customer service desk. Works for anyone in government or the DMV, where "not my department" is less of a joke and more of a job description. It says what everyone is thinking without anyone getting written up.
