so today, my friend told me something that surprised/irritated/disgusted me. she told me that at her job, she is REQUIRED to wear makeup.
WHAT?!
since when can you require an employee to wear makeup??
now, okay, i understand she works in the service industry, and has to be a presentable salesperson. but come on. being appropriately presentable should refer to cleanliness, in my opinion. clean, pressed clothing, tidy hair, good hygiene.
im pretty sure she doesn't agree with this policy either, though tries to justify it by saying that sometimes her skin isn't very clear. please. the girl is beautiful, and should not feel forced to cover up if she doesn't want to! furthermore, if her skin isn't clear, it's probably because they're making her clog her pores with makeup!
do you think, if a male server had a breakout, they would make him cover his zits with makeup??
no, they would not.
in protest, i am not going to wear makeup to work tomorrow. although, it's friday, and i will be standing in front of two huge ovens all day, sweating, and probably wouldn't have worn makeup anyway.
doesn't really seem like enough, does it?
