So Barbelith, do people think beards are bad for business?
Well, if you're going for a 9-to-5, cubicle dwelling drone type of job, yeah, the people doing the interview usualy frown upon beards. And long hair. And tattoos. And piercing. And colorful attire. And to much sense of humor. And not saying your worst flaw is "perfectionism". In short, drone-job.
Should I get rid of the old soup strainer in an effort to better myself or would (as my gut tells me) that be giving in to the opressor.
My advice would be, shave the beard for the interview process (as painful as it may be), and, after you got hired and they got used to you fixing the shit they make, then let it grow back in all its might. It will be then too late (but read your contract carefully: there's always the possibility they have an anti-beard clause, those mugglefuckers). First, you give in to the opressor, so, when the opressor relaxes and gets distracted, you can stick it up to them.
On a personal note, though, I'd rather stay unemployed than to sacrifice my facial furr like that. But I don't have kids or mortgage or health issues (so far), so it's easy(ier) for me to do so... |
