Wage Shorts
Description: Wage labor is theft. This design was originally based on a political cartoon titled "Organize and Take The Big Bag!" drawn by Jon Lynch, and appeared in the Industrial Pioneer, a publication of the IWW, in June 1925. A redrawn version of the original political cartoon is also available.

Description: A sarcastic workplace humor design featuring a tired cartoon employee shrugging beneath bold teal and pink lettering that reads I’m Just Acting My Wage. The messy hair, sleepy expression, ID badge, and casual office outfit reinforce the exhausted worker mood. Bright brush typography, sticker-style outlines, and playful doodle accents create a relatable job humor visual about burnout, low motivation, and matching energy to pay.
