Darryl McKoy:
I shave/grow it depending on the context. If I'm going for a job interview, I'll know they'll be more impressed with me the younger I come across - so I shave. When I'm working with people who I know look down on colleagues because of their age, I'll let my facial hair grow out.

to reject a person who is well qualified for a position over their choice of garment is dumb af tbh bbq just because it's ""the standard of professionalism""

Why complain about looking professional enough to make a good impression being inexpensive?
Edit: relatively inexpensive compared to "status symbol"

if you're saying that "times change" isn't a valid argument: why? "looking good" is based on the time period.

can you rephrase that? i quite literally don't understand. you probably made an argument in valid phrasing but my english grammar is starting to become foggy because of all my drilling in french.

this sentence is kind of a clusterforget but if you're saying suits are inexpensive then you've got another thing coming
