I might consider growing one if I wore an eye patch, but I was never in Nam.

Must not be all too high up. The executives and important people are allowed to have facial hair.

Kind of hard to move up from a "cook" position at Applebee's

Surprised Justin didn't start an OC team for this again this year.

Oh sure. I'm "allowed" to have facial hair, just like they are "allowed" to hand me a pink slip. People that grow facial hair don't respect their jobs and their customers; and that's not a risk I'm willing to take.

Look at Warren Buffet, Steve Jobs(RIP), Bill Gates, Jerry Yang, etc.. Do they grow facial hair? No. You know someone that does? Michael Moore. I'll take the former over the latter.

I wish I still had my beard, but unfortunately because of work, I also have to shave. I am allowed to grow a "stache" though, so for Movember I will do this. Otherwise, I am not a fan of the "stache". Full beard is what I like to sport. Stupid work.

I have started a team for Movemeber, got about 12 guys so far, and I have raised $50. I am trying to get $100.

LMAO steve jobs never wore a suit. I guess he didn't respect his customers. Also what if you are a federal employee? LOL at your facial hair theory though, especially mustaches. I have seen plenty of successful people with mustaches.

The primary customers of Steve Jobs never wore a suit and never held a real job. He was trying to look like an unemployed hippy and was successful at attracting that customer base.

So why did you even mention him then? Also, as justin pointed out, he has facial hair. What is your explanation there? What is your explanantion for the third richest man having facial hair?

I believe he and I were the only two to participate last year. Maybe one other.

Most of these men grew facial hair after they were already successful. It'd be an interesting study to see what America would look like if these men had decided to let hair grow on their face in their earlier careers.

Can you imagine the world without Steve Jobs? I can. It'd be a place where people saved their money and had something to talk about other than how cool their expensive and low quality gadgets are.
