    And the sign says, "Long haired freaky people need not apply"
    So I put my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why?
    He said, "You look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do"
    So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that! Huh! Me, working for you!"

    That's the biggest blunder of all, How do you not jump on PR gold?

    They have always had that rule.
    No hair below the collar. No piercings on men. Nothing but ears on women. Must be clean. No clothing with holes. Rule is to shower at least every other day.
    I understand the reason that you grow you hair out, and I applaud it. But there is nothing wrong with a company having standards when it comes to grooming.

    Why the misleading sensational thread title? "No ponytails allowed" too benign for you?

    While locks of love is an admirable charity, (my wife donates to them sometimes) I don't think it hardly qualifies as a "medical donor" to give hair to them. Its not hardly on par with, let's say, a kidney or bone marrow.

    You think you have it bad? My boss MAKES me have sex with her, makes me shave my head BALD and takes almost all of my money, barely leaving me enough to eat on! I thought about cutting ties with my company, but it would only end up being awkward since my wife owns the company.

    This isn't discrimination. It is a standard. Just go work for someone else. Just because you have a cause doesn't mean the world should bow to it. If you like to donate hair, great. Find a company that doesn't care. Heartland has the right to have standards. Doesn't mean it is a slight against you.

    Long hair on men only works when they are young.
    Past 40 or so, you just look like a douchy slob.
    Get over yerself.
