i need help

[poopfresh]

I applied for a seasonal/temporary driver filled the application and got a scheduled appointment. my concern is facial hair policy. I have a beard that is about 2 inches long. now is it worth going to the appointment because there is no way am shaving

 

[hellfire]

Really ??? Nope

 

[BakerMayfield2018]

Well. At least you got your priorities straight........

 

[upschuck]

Are you @turdferguson and @turdbrown love child?

 

[Ms.PacMan]

I don't think they will ask you to shave unless you get hired but if you're not ever willing to shave then it's a waste of time to go.

I had hair down to the small of my back and bobbed it when I got hired.

 

[Box Ox]

LOL. Don't even bother.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Ms. PacMan is right-----you don't have to shave until after you find out that you have been hired.

 

[upschuck]

But why go and waste everyone's time if you know you are not going to shave.

HR will not base their decision upon whether the applicant has facial hair. They will fully explain the appearance standards and any job offer would be based on compliance.

Or..., you could go to FedEx Ground. Keep the beard and wear faded uniforms with holes in them.

 

[poopfresh]

well I have heard people say that they don't allow long beards. mine is short and what to know the policies on that. do they even allow facial hair

But he said he wasn't shaving, so no reason to apply, if you are not willing to comply with appearance standards.

I was under the impression he wasn't going to shave until he was hired.

To the OP--your hair cannot touch your collar or fall beneath your ears. You can have a mustache but it cannot extend beyond the corners of the mouth or below the top lip.

I took it as he wasn't shaving after he got job, even.

 

[poopfresh]

so if my beard does not touch my collar area its fine?

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Let's see---$100K job---shave---the choice seems pretty straightforward to me.

NO BEARD!

 

[Turdferguson]

Yes you should be OK with that

 

[Box Ox]

Go ahead and take a job with FedEx. Then come back and tell us whether keeping your little beard was worth passing up UPS.

You can work inside, they have no appearance standards

 

[Turdferguson]

Don't let these guys mess with you keep the beard. Just trim it up some.
