[QUOTE="Korn4Life, post: 6024584, member: 586459"] Ok I work for a Security Company for the past 9 years. I have always had a Goatee. When I was Hired in 2000 it wasnt and issue. I left the company for 8 months back in 2005 but then came back. I was rehired and still no issure. Well now they are telling me to shave or im fired. But here is the thing that gets me. Once every 4 months we get a catalog about our company and in it there are pictures and articles about guards that do great work and whatever. Well in each book there is atleast 10+ people with beards, Goatees and other facial hair. So is it Discrimination for them to make me shave and yet let other people keep there facial hair? O and my goatee is very neat and short. In our handbook it states that we cannot have Extreme facial hair or beards. BUT at the end it says that it is up to Branch management to decide if we are alowed to have beards and other facial hair. My old boss had a goatee and never had a problem with mine. but now we have a lady as our boss and she has a problem with it Sorry its so long of a read. CLIFFS: Worked at a company for 9 years had a goatee the whole time but now they want me to shave or be fired. But yet other employees are allowed to have facial hair... Is it discrimination???
