Pirate Codes Beat Most Office Handbooks ~ Heavy Blend Hoodie

Short Enough to Read ~ Clear Enough to Swear On

Before a voyage a pirate crew wrote down its articles, and every man swore to them or signed. Two sets survive, from the crews of Roberts and Phillips. Roberts' version covers pay, discipline, injury and a vote in fewer lines than the parking section of a modern employee handbook. Nobody needed a webinar.

• For the one who wrote the handbook: A gift for the HR director who knows nobody reads page 40, the manager who wishes rules were shorter, and the history fan who has read Roberts' articles for fun.
• Onboarding, 1720s: Read it aloud, swear on it, and get to work, with no login, no module and no quiz.
• Signed and filed in: Part of Pirate History & Legends, where the rules were short because the consequences were not.

Cold spray off the bow, a long night watch, a captain who refuses to call it a day ~ this Gildan Heavy Blend hoodie keeps the crew warm through all of it with soft cotton-poly fleece, a double-lined hood, a roomy front pouch for snacks and treasure maps, and ribbed cuffs that hold the wind out ~ Damien's parrot approves of the hood
