The first Monday of retirement is the one people talk about for years. "What Do You Call A Person Who Is Happy On A Monday? Retired" reads best from behind a full cup at ten in the morning.

A ceramic mug printed on both sides in the USA, in 15 oz and 11 oz, with the inks baked into the glaze. Dishwasher and microwave safe, so the joke turns up daily.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which mug size should I choose, 15 oz or 11 oz?
A: The 15 oz suits somebody who refills constantly or drinks a large coffee, and the 11 oz is the standard cup most cupboards are full of. Retired people tend to want the bigger one.

Q: Is this mug dishwasher and microwave safe?
A: Both, and the design is baked into the ceramic rather than sitting on the surface. Keeping abrasive cloths off it is the only thing that matters long term.

Q: Is a mug a good retirement gift on its own?
A: A mug becomes the object somebody uses every morning of their retirement, which is more than most send-off gifts manage. Add a card and it is a complete gift.

Q: Will the print wear off after a year of daily washing?
A: The inks are fired into the glaze rather than applied on top, so daily dishwasher cycles do not lift them. Scouring pads are the only real threat.

Q: Does the design appear on both sides?
A: It is printed on both sides, so the saying faces outward for a left- or right-handed drinker. It also means it reads across a kitchen table.

Q: Where is this mug made?
A: It is designed and printed in the USA, including the baked-in inks. Nothing about the printing happens overseas.
