Do i REALLY have to shave?

[Indecisi0n]

I don't stick my nose there.

I wouldn't either. Had taco bell last night.

What about laser hair removal? permanent

I want to do it, but very expensive and not necessarily permanent. I would do my entire body if I could. I absolutely detest body hair! Sadly, as we age, our hair thins on our head, but our body hair grows. Like WTF? That is a cruel cruel joke - lol!

Here they keep advertising, buy one area, get 2 areas free. Does it take a long time? several sessions? I would hope that they don't miss and weld things shut.

 

[Brownslave688]

Yes several sessions and like ginger said no promise some of it won't come back. You'll likely be picking scraglers the rest of your life.

 

[gingerkat]

I had a friend do it years ago and she had to do multiple sessions on each area. She still has to do some plucking every now and then. Every skin type is also different, so there is no guarantee.

 

[upschuck]

Then it would look like you have some disease. I wonder if they have some type of guarantee, or free retouches.

Even if you go to a dermatologist.....i take it teamcare probably won't cover it? lol

Stand your ground. Don't shave. Yolo.

If you take that advice you will be standing your ground......OUTSIDE THE DOOR!!!

 

[gingerkat]

Please, I go to the dermatologist and try to get botox, restyln and all kind of other "necessary" things, but no go - lol

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.

There is only one thing to do then.....quit your job...start your own company and, make up the rules for the people you pay to represent your company!

But will the day ever come when you add something constructive or informative?

You are a moderator? You are from FedEx?? The things I've shared here real life ups stories to people that work at ups. This is why it doesn't pertain to you. Sorry.

Somedays my soul purpose is to derail threads. It comes easy with being a union steward.

Well BC is bigger than that, now isn't it? If you can get past your tender feelings, it really was quite a funny retort.

local? I thought 407 was the only local that ever mattered.

center manager asked me yesterday "Did you forget to shave today" I responded "Yes, and i forget to yesterday also", he walked away.

I've heard HR tell Driver's Helpers during orientation that had beards, tats, and huge ear ring insertions (that resembled what I had seen in National Geo as a kid) that they had to put band aids over their ear ring insertions, wear long sleeves, and shave or they would be sent home. Only mustaches neatly trimmed above the lips were allowed as far as facial hair.

The young kid with the ear insertion rings also had tats on his fingers. HR suggested he wear gloves.

Where there is a will, there is a way..... other than beards.

I wonder how HR feels about "Uni-brows" ?

 

[bleedinbrown58]

I wonder if the OP got that fry guy job at Mcdonald's.....

 

[RockinRobin]

He could always work as a Loader. We could use all of those we can get, at least at our HUB.
