So I just googled men with long hair because of an incident today that the kind of offended me. I’ve always loved hair long hair I’ve had most of my life and I’ve been advised many times both directly and indirectly that it could be a detriment in finding a job even though it should not be. Anyway I just got a new job got through the interview and everything. Taking the next step in my path to success in the accounting field. Landed the job perfectly on merit. Today I went into sign the paperwork and the boss said “I do want to say that we are a professional environment I want to ask about your hair.“ I said “do you have an issue with it?” He said I don’t have an issue but we do want to be professional I don’t know if you want to cut it. I don’t know how attached you are to it.” I responded “very” and he said “oh then I won’t bother you about it.” So I’m glad that part is behind us but it still bothers me that this is the year 2020 and people still make an issue of men with long hair. So I just needed to rant about that and I found this board.
