Don't let these folks have you passing up jobs just to keep a hairdo.
Jan 06th 2015
30
is the employer in the right though?
Jan 06th 2015
33
      I guess it depends, but some can demand a clean shaven man
Jan 06th 2015

      The employer can be in the wrong AND she should change her hair
Jan 06th 2015
