It's HER Job?!?!?!?!?!?!?

IN JOBS THAT SHOULD JUST GO AWAY:

Today, after meetings with several clients, I briefly window-shopped in Montreal's Centre Eaton shopping mall and found this nasty t-shirt at Bauhaus Jeans:

FYI: serving you with divorce papers is also her job.

I'm legitimately shocked that a company owned by Foxy Jeans, which manufactures women's apparel, would approve this design, sign their name on it and distribute it.  Also, who would be ignorant enough wear it and think that women would find it attractive or funny?  

As Erica Ehm from YummyMummyClub.ca pointed out on Twitter, "Who do they want to buy this product? Certainly not women, or men with wives."

Some of the reactions to the "crapparel" from my Twitter feed:

   @onehundredjobs I agree it'd mostly be interpreted that way. But at least they could defend themselves saying they meant the other way...about 2 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to onehundredjobs

   @onehundredjobs Yeah. Come on, it's funny. Maybe, I'd have left the "it's her job" part out of it. Then it'd be a joke or either guys/girls.about 2 hours ago via TweetDeck

The irony is not lost on me that I'm doing my son's laundry tonight, although I'm doing it because I love him, want to take care of him and not because it's my job.
