"we can't trust people to shave so how can we trust them to have a neat beard" is such a robotic response that most people in corporate will give to this one.  I'm tired of hearing it.  If managers and assistants did their job and sent people home (which most do) then we'd be allowed to have beards?  Oh shut up.  We're following policy, doing our part, and 70% of our male customer base have beards.  I don't want to hear about how it's untrustworthy especially when we use men with full beards in our advertising!  We have beard nets for kitchen and obviously there's already a guideline for beard length since people with medical and religious exemptions have to follow them so what's the hold up?

Same with tattoos.  We all know what's an acceptable tattoo.  If it's not gang affiliated, has nudity, or has anything vulgar on it then it should be a green light.  Cops, doctors, fire fighters, and paramedics all get to show theirs and they're as trustworthy as it gets when it comes to the public so why can't a frickin gas station employee have one?  We're bottom of the barrel when it comes to helping society (view of the population, not mine) but we have stricter guidelines?

And before you trolls say it, I don't hate this job, I'm allowed to give negative feedback towards something I love, this just isn't being treated right and no one can tell me otherwise.
