Computer Key Shirt: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?

GeekSugar — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 16:00:53 PDT

I've seen a lot of geeky tees in my day, but I've never before seen such a Geek-key tee! Oh, I kill me!

But seriously. Check out this Computer Key Shirt ($26) from Etsy. I like you too much to make a pun about wearing your geekiness on your sleeve (but not enough to spare you from my geeky-key joke, snap), but you get the idea.

You want to know what the weirdest thing about this shirt is? I don't hate it. The grays the artist chose for the tees are very chic and complement the industrial grays of the keys. Don't know if I'd wear it to a party, but the execution could have been worse.

What do you think? Too cute or too dorky for words?

Punctuality is a crucial part of professionalism and making positive first impressions. While we've heard some ridiculous excuses for being late, tardiness is usually caused by something more mundane. If you regularly find yourself racing the clock, take a step back and assess what's causing you to run behind.

Alarm problems. Either it didn't go off, you set it for the wrong time, or you slept right through it - whatever the case, turn around your alarm troubles by spending some extra time planning your sleep schedule. Make sure you're getting seven to eight hours of shut-eye each night and guarantee a smooth morning by setting two or three alarms. Struggle to get out of bed in the morning? Place your alarm on the other side of the room so that you're forced to get up to turn it off.
Getting ready gets chaotic. Where's your purse? Your keys? Did you leave that shirt at the dry cleaner? These stressful moments are easily avoidable. Prep for your morning the night before and make a list of everything you need to grab before heading out the door. And be honest with yourself - if it takes you 15 minutes to do your hair, don't allot five.
