Love it - but it was so long! Thankfully being a dab hand with a sewing machine I’ve managed to take it up to a reasonable length for the female form!

Manual Work Is For Quitters
Manual work is for quitters takes the oldest taunt in sport, the one that calls anyone who gives up a quitter, and aims it at doing a task by hand. In this reading the quitter is the person who stopped before writing the script. Larry Wall listed laziness first among the three great virtues of a programmer, the kind that makes you work hard once so you never have to do the same thing twice.
Site reliability engineers have a name for the work being insulted: Google's SRE book calls it toil, manual and repetitive work that grows with the service, and asks teams to keep it under half their time. The shirt says the same thing with less patience. It is for DevOps engineers, SREs and developers who were told to click the same button every Friday and took it personally.

The blank behind every t-shirt
Battle-tested comfort for uptime and off-days.
Most brands treat the blank as an afterthought. We treat it like the product it is. Every design ships on the same tee we picked after ditching the ones that pill, shrink, and go see-through by the third wash. Proper ring-spun cotton, soft enough to wear five days running, tough enough that the print still looks new long after your last deploy. True to size, no surprises. The kind of shirt you forget you are wearing, which is exactly the point.
Fits everyone
Soft ring-spun cotton
Holds up in the wash
Prints stay sharp
Great durability
Ethical and sustainable
