What kind of company do you work for? What business do they have regulating peoples' facial hair?
Extreme high end customer service. Basically our uniform standards are not far off of military standards
Well, in that case I'd say, you signed up for that.
I did, I never said I didnt sign up for it. And it pays to have to deal with it, however I did highlight why and how its arduous to do
People in the military also signed up for that, its not like we draft people anymore
One of our Canadian military groups famously won the privilege of beards while in uniform. As they are best described as Lumberjack Commandos, and basically build crazy stuff in active war zones, it fits.
All beards majestic as fuck, obviously.
Many navies, inc Australian Navy, allow beards, whereas airforce and army don't.
Not sure why, I think it was originally associated with limited water supply on subs or something. But they have to be neatly trimmed and fit properly into their OCCABA mask.
