It's a Botanist Thing You Wouldn't Understand
One design for this subject, on a Unisex Standard T-Shirt. If more appear in the same line they will show up here.
Name the right job
Trade and profession shirts are specific on purpose. Someone who says they are a botanist will not accept a near-miss title, and the closely related jobs each have their own version — that precision is the whole point of the joke.
One design for this job so far. Check the wording matches the title they actually use before buying.
Who it is for
Best for someone a few years into the work — long enough that the job has its own vocabulary and its own complaints. For a new starter it can read as presumptuous, and for someone who has left the trade it reads as nostalgia rather than a joke.
Plants have names and they will use them
Latin binomials are not showing off; common names differ by region and get things wrong. A botanist using the proper name is being precise, not difficult.
They also cannot look at a hedgerow casually, which makes walks slower for everyone else.
Herbarium work is a large and unglamorous part of the field that outsiders never picture.
Sizing and ordering
- Unisex tees run true to size — size up one for a relaxed fit.
- Allow two to three weeks. Each shirt is printed after you order, so production time comes before shipping time.
- Checkout happens on the print partner's site — Senprints handles printing, payment and delivery.
If it is not quite the right job
The wording only works when it names the exact job, so it is worth checking before you buy. Broker, Carpenter and Chef each have their own page with their own designs, and there are more below.
