Frustration at work

Tweet

I work at a custom screen printing shop and one of our big projects every spring is an on-site t-shirt sale at a couple of youth basketball tournaments. The first one is in March and the second in April but I (as the graphic artist) start thinking of designs to put on the shirts we will sell in January after we get through the holiday rush. Typically they feature a basketball in some capacity and a catchy phrase. I am not a big basketball fan so I look for phrases on the internet and redesign around them. One of the tournaments is an all-girls tournament so I always throw in a couple of girly phrases, but the other people I work with vote against them because they don't think anyone will buy them. I think they get sold all over the internet, so someone is obviously buying them. Some of the ones I have used in the past are: You say "Play like a Girl" like it's a bad thing. You just wish you could shoot like a Girl. I am the Queen and this is my Court (with a picture of a basketball court) How does it feel to be beat by a Girl? If you were a pre-teen girl, would you spend $10 on any of those as a souvenir at a basketball tournament you were playing in?
