About

I'm Ula. I spent 18 years in corporate and all I had left was an inspiration for this T-shirt company.

I was the HR person. Eventually Chief People Officer, which is HR with a bigger chair. I ran the icebreakers. I've heard 4000 truths and 2000 lies in my career. Against my will. I told people "we're going in a different direction" and kept a straight face doing it.

My childhood dream was to do comedy, but my family had this crazy obsession with having income. So they made me choose the one department specifically designed to prevent comedy. 

Then I went in a different direction myself. I became a stand-up comedian in New York. 18 years climbing the ladder, and now I do crowd work in a basement on Tuesdays.

HR Gone Wild exists because of a loophole: there are things you cannot say at work, and every single one of them is allowed if it's funny. A joke walks through doors a complaint never will. So the shirt does the talking. You wear the shirt to the offsite. Everyone wonders if it's about them. 

For the record, nobody did anything wrong. We all inherited the same rituals and agreed to keep a straight face. I stopped keeping mine. This store is what fell out.

If the jokes feel too accurate, that's years of experience talking. Apparently some things are universal.

Worst regards, Ula
