Do we get to grow beards in new contract?

[trplnkl]

my pics of facial hair are from when I was on comp with a rotator cuff tear.

Ya I figured that out after I read back through the rest of the posts. LOL

Cheryl, We need a smiley w/ beard. THX

 

[moreluck]

There's the beard !!!

 

[dilligaf]

I must have missed that in looking through the smileys thx Moreluck

I went back and looked, can we have just a regular beard, I'm not looking for the political connotations of Osama. I don't want to convey the wrong message.

Cannot wait to get moved to inside 22.3 and let it all go. Shaving and showering daily prior to work is called metrosexual.

 

[soberups]

There is no rule against beards, you are allowed to grow one every weekend.

Well, I will agree on the shaving part, but the showering....uuuuuuuh..I think I'll shower. Daily.

uuuuuuh maybe you need to go back to elementry school reading comprehension, because no where did I say I don't shower daily. I said showering daily prior to work.

You left it open to interpretation when you didn't qualify that you preferred to shower daily but in the evenings. Geeeez, lighten up.

On the lighter side of contract talks, I'll ask the ever present question, "when do we get to grow some beards around here?" Do we have some language in this new contract about facial hair. Seriously people, its 2007 not 1937, I don't think a customer is going to get scared if the ups guy has a goatee or even a beard. I'm not asking for a ZZ TOP kinda beard either just something well maintained on my face other than a mustache. Give me some feedback on this please!

Well , where does it stop (the beard) and what does it look like, and who sez how long and pretty.........What is pretty..........

I knew a Muslim driver @ the ATL hub who had a beard half as long as ZZ top. Seen a handful with the short haired beard due to medical reasons.

Just curious if he was Muslim or Sikh.

Just wondering. Why is it that probably 75-80% of us male drivers have dark hair and mustaches? (as opposed to the 5% of women drivers) I had a woman trying to describe a driver to me one time to figure out who he was. She said he had dark hair and a mustache. Then she said come to think of it, every driver I see has dark hair and a mustache! Never thought about it till then but many of us do, including me. (I've had mine since 8th grade.)

Sure, you can absolutely grow a beard or anything else you want....if you work inside and "do not meet the public"!

my sister is a UPS part-time sup and she's 4 months pregnant and they forced her to take disability she just wanted to make a "light duty" request and save her 6 mo disability for later so that she didn't have to rush immediately back to work or risk being unpaid but now they forced her to take a disability leave stating that she was unable to lift 70 pounds is that fair or more importantly legal
