Something like 15 years ago, I was in grad school and my elder boomer father in law told me "when it's time to find a job you can shave your beard." Only this wasn't a beard, it was just me not having shaved for a week. Is that what he would prioritize if he were hiring someone?! I've met few people in my life who are less in touch than that man
-
20 odd years ago, getting tired of job interviews and the one time I looked scruffy and unshaven was when they hired me
-
That entirely depends on the job and conditions of the beard. In a customer facing position a wildman styled beard might not be appropriate and in my time in kitchens I would refuse to hire anyone whose facial hair wasn't clean and maintained (beard nets are never optional in food prep).
-
Like I said, a week of stubble lol
-
Does it take a week for you to have stubble? For me it takes 3 days for mine to be noticeable. I didnt shave daily until my early 30s.
-
No, but a week's growth being "noticeable" is far from a "wildman styled beard" lmao.
-
For some it might be? I have to imagine that if Im slow to grow facial hair that others might grow it quickly. I don't know you or how fast your hair grows
-
Is this really the hill you want to die on?
-
Is English your first language because your response is a really aggressive reaction to a conversation about the rate at which different people grow facial hair.
-
So that's a "yes," then. Good luck with that.
-
I don't think you should be talking down to anyone given how inappropriate your response was.
-
Thanks for your feedback.
