To shave or not to shave that is the question...
-
Ok it is Monday. I opted not to shave and I wore jeans into work today. I was pretty sure I wouldn't be seeing any clients. Well, I was wrong. Looks like a client is going to show up today after lunch. It is for a very short one week part time deal. I am thinking I better go home over lunch shave and put some nicer cloths on. You know the old saying, "You never have a second chance to make a very good first impression." What's your opinion?

Is that why I have a razor in the filing cabinet? I never know when a client is going to show up, but luckily we are pretty relaxed on dress code. But for the forgettory (as apposed to a memory) that I have, there is a travel kit in the filing cabinet in case I do forget to shave.

Yep. A razor and a toothbrush. You can't expect to be taken seriously with half a leaf of salad between your front teeth... :-D

I wear ankle socks and sneakers everyday except the days I wear cowboy boots. Shaving is optional ( I look better rough), sometimes my hair desperately needs cutting, but, amazingly, my pants and shirts are always freshly pressed.

Evolution gave us facial hair for a reason. Shaving goes against nature.

While I do not meet clients anymore, I have an emergency kit of tooth care, pit stick, hairbrush, etc. Since your drive is short you may as well change. If it was a longer drive I would say no.

As does clothing. But seriously, remember that the "managers" wear suits and are well groomed; I doubt you want to be mistaken for one of "them". The less presentable the programmer, the better the code. Forget shaving, add an aluminum hat to your outfit.

That is kind what I was thinking. Might was well make the best impression I can even if it is just going to be a short small project. You never know when the future will hold. Ben

My opinion is that if you have to ask the question, "Should I go home to shave and change clothes?" on an Internet forum, there are bigger issues at stake here.
