232. I can't believe we are even having this argument...??!!!
I feel like I'm back in the late 1960s and early 1970s. There were numerous discussions organized by schools, churches, social and community groups and the like that addressed the issue of dress on the job (among other issues). I attended a few of these and witnessed the back and forth argument about whether an employer had or didn't have the right to restrict the appearance of an employee. Then it was mostly about hair length and facial hair. But now we are concerned about makeup?

I just hope the old "If the 'man' is paying you, then you do what the 'man' wants" argument doesn't raise its ugly head again...

But makeup? Horrors! I just hope we don't go back to the era of bouffant or beehive hairdos!!!
