We present a simple model of gauge mediation (GM) which does not have a messenger sector or gauge singlet fields. The standard model gauge groups couple directly to the sector which breaks supersymmetry dynamically. This is the first phenomenologically viable example of this type in the literature. Despite the direct coupling, the model can preserve perturbative gauge unification. This is achieved by the inverted hierarchy mechanism which generates a large scalar expectation value compared to the size of supersymmetry breaking. There is no dangerous negative contribution to the squark, slepton masses due to two-loop renormalization group equation. The potentially non-universal supergravity contribution to the scalar masses can be suppressed enough to maintain the virtue of the gauge mediation. The model is completely chiral, and one does not need to forbid mass terms for the messenger fields by hand. Beyond the simplicity of the model, it possesses cosmologically desirable features compared to the original models of GM: an improved gravitino and string moduli cosmology. The Polonyi problem is back unlike in the original GM models, but is still much less serious than in hidden sector models.
