Cutting my hair - Need input. /swt

[Xeke]

My advice for Whispers:
Dont cut it, move to australia, become a programmer...

I'm 6 ft tall, and my hair is so long I sit on it when it is plaited... and since growing it I have had 5 separate jobs...
Door to door sales - where looks are everything... The advice I was given after getting the job was to shave my face, not cut my hair... My hair wasn't mentioned...
Storeman/Salesman in a Tile shop... Hair wasn't even mentioned... Run by a conservative Greek family... They did ask if I was religious though, and even after answering 'No', I got the job...
IBM - Tech support... Again, no mention... Position is based on what you know, and how you talk to people...
Student mentor at Uni... Yes, it was a paying job... And still no mention of my hair...
And now, I'm a programmer... And, funny this, my hair was not mentioned again...!

Zaratus: I'm imagining your a CEO of a company... you would hire someone based on their looks alone... you must be CEO of a strip club...
Though I do know that it does happen in the real world... I just don't see it happening around here...
