    I noticed a memo at the Knoxville center earlier today. Apparently Averitt is relaxing on the facial hair rule. It looks like us guys are now permitted to have a beard as long as it is kept neat. I was reading the image policy on Inside Averitt and it has been updated to reflect the beard rules. I'm happy because I've worn a beard for the last 15 years and had to shave it a couple of months ago in order to work for Averitt. I'm digging the new allowance for the beard. Sweet!

    YES!!!! I was hoping that they would go through with it. And to think I just shaved mine off for Monday. :p

    That's ok, I'll grow it back after...

    That was to accommodate the new hire Muslims.

    Are you being serious? I'm not sure of the law, but religious freedom would seem to cover beards of Muslims, which supersedes company policy.

    Question... Is it beard only or is clean goatee acceptable?

    A goatee IS a beard. Its just a style of beard.

    I was told this week at a interview that closely trimmed mustache or Goatees are OK, I don't think beard was mentioned.

    I was told that the beard is fine up to 1/2 inch thickness.
