it sucks that you have to shave your beard to drive.

[Catatonic]

Maybe worth two. It's just a very outdated policy.

Oh, I agree with that.
I have a full beard now that I am retired and my hair would be way out of compliance.

 

[BigUnionGuy]

that is all.

I'm disappointed, there was no follow-up question.... about your dreadlocks.

I shave on Tuesdays because that's the day of our mgmt/driver meeting. Other than that I shine it off. By the time it looks scruffy enough to notice from more than 5 ft away it's the end of the Friday workday so feel free to send me home.

You don't have to shave the your beard to drive. FedEx, the Post Office, and a number of other Freight carriers would be more than willing to let you work with a beard. You get paid a lot more though to shave the beard and drive for UPS than you would make with any of those other companies.

You get to keep your pubes. Quit your bitchin.

During peak some of the drivers in my building would come in with 2 or 3 days shadows. One of the ORS said something to one and the answer he got was I'm not getting out of the car so who cares. Nothing was said the rest of peak...

Same schedule here. This fair skinned Irish boy don't grow facial hair so fast.

 

[Hroller]

You can always go to Fed Ex. Saw a driver on Friday for purple....the guy looked like a lumberjack!

Driver in my building has a skin condition on his upper neck & jaw area. Company doctor concurred with his personal doctor that he shouldn't shave. He wears a neatly-kept beard all year long.

 

[hurricanegunner]

We have several drivers in our center with neatly trimmed beards. They have notes from their doctor saying they have sensitive skin. Go see your doctor for a note.

Did the company doctor have to sign off on the notes?

I would love to have the option of growing a beard. I'm not talking Duck Dynasty----a neatly trimmed goatee would be fine.

80-100K a year and people are complaining about having to shave a beard. SMH. Grow up

This has nothing to do with "growing up". As our society evolves companies need to keep up with the changes.

I guess we should be thankful we are no longer required to wear hats and bow ties.

You would look so snappy Dave!
Maybe it's not a good thing.

I grew my first one just last year for the first time while I was off work from surgery on a finger. Curiosity satisfied. Getting gray. Got 4 different colors going on.

Once I turned completely gray, I did the same.

I've got 2 colors going on ... gray and white are two different colors, right?
