1 - Yes, you need to shave. I shave the night before and even then I sometimes get the sideways look because by the next day it isn't a clean shave. Just do it, don't push it if you want a job. I don't necessarily agree that the shaved look is considered the most professional look but UPS has maintained their position for obvious reasons. They have it a specific way so there is no question.. you are shaved or you aren't. Opening the door for some facial hair to be okay and some not would create a nightmare for supervisors and managers and HR. Let's face it... the boundaries would continue to be pushed and pushed.

2 - Not sure where you got your information regarding the 'after peak season' but here is what I have been led to believe. They have been known to hire one or two top peak drivers at the end of the season. [depending on demand/location] They also keep a list of their top peak drivers to be considered for future opportunities.

3 - Peak drivers do not make 80K. The reference made above was for full time UPS drivers who have likely been in their position for a few years and overtime.

Long ago, I convinced my husband to allow me to wax his chest, but after one big strip and yank of wax, he ran away. He had a bright red pink stripe and a reverse mohawk on his chest - lol

you are shaved or you aren't.

I think you're forgetting that mustaches are allowed. It's not about having a shaved face; It's about people who made up the rules years ago. At this point, those people in charge are too old and senile to think differently.

There is absolutely no professionalism to having a pony tail and mustache that makes you look like a porn director, yet it's allowed. I've seen drivers show up with hair that looks like they drove to work in a convertible with the top down. Just like everything else at this company, these appearance rules make little sense.

Sounds like that scene from "40 year old virgin". Did he get to keep his nipples?
