OT; Cut my hair? FUCK YOU!!!

The worst is when you get the job then 3 months down the line they tell you you need to cut your hair and wear a long sleeve shirt to cover up that tattoo. Both of which haven't changed when I started the job.

But I love my hair and wouldn't cut it for any job so good on you for telling them where to go. :)

Id tell them to shove it and send your story to the local papers they would love to get a load of that i reckon!

you could actually contact the local better business bureau about discrimination. if they are worth their weight as a company they would be wise to take any comment of the sort seriously. dress code can't be a basis for hiring.

just look at that casino in atlantic city that fired half of it's staff because they were too old to look good in the new "uniforms" (skimpy dresses). They have a class action lawsuit on their hands now because of someone with a shallow mentality.

I think in the UK you can not hire people on any grounds apart from race/religion/gender/orientation/disability.

Dress code and appearance in such matters as hair and tattoos are very reasonable grounds to not hire someone. Not saying I agree with it, just that they have the right to decide how they want their companies image projected.

Get Your Hair Cut Hippy.

Also - THREE interviews for a telesales job? AND - an agency for a telesales job? The turnover of employees in those places in crazy. You can walk into a job in telesales....

i dont know how many times I've said that to young guys in my line of work haha but always in a joking manner of course, well if they dont get a hair cut they have no choice but the wear a hat (and hair net if there hair is hanging loose) but thats for health and safety,
but you stick to your guns, sure it probably wont be long till your bald anyways :D
