I just got lectured by some lady telling me that my hairstyle was a "'wall' to success" and that i am "sending the establishment a message" that i stand against them. Apparently she "read it in a book." (LOL)
the whole time i just wanted to say "That's the point."
reflecting on: what success is to you may not be success to me, how someone who tells you to conform to the "establishment" is in fact part of what makes the "establishment" so "established." Stop referring to yourself in 3rd person and just say "I don't like it."

ReplyDeletei like it.
that happens to me everyday i come to school. plus i have my mom telling me that no one will hire a lady with a nose ring......i still have my nose ring...and i have a job!
i would hire you
as the job market is being emptied of the "old heads" with old ways, and replaced by some new young minds, i have a hope that the trend for assessing qualifications and skills rather than physical appearance will carry more weight - but that is wishful thinking.
Hear, hear!
