Title: First reaction.
Post by: Kojack on July 28, 2008, 02:43:18 PM
My co-worker walked over to my desk (I work 3rd shift and  from home mostly but every now and again go into the office) I had on a ballcap, mainly because my head is two tone right now until I can get some sun on my dome, but he immediately saw I had shaved and said something about it. I removed the cap and his jaw dropped and he was like "WHAAAAAAAAAT!? WHAAAAAAT!!?" and started laughing. LOL

I was on a bridge call and couldn't really talk about it as we had customers on the call as well. Not sure if it was a positive reaction. Later I went over to his desk and he said "Wow you really went all the way and asked if I did it because I just got tired of messing with the hair. (I wore a system before.) I said yeah that was it. I was pretty sure he knew. We've worked together for about a decade., but he never really let on he knew. Anyways even with the head shaved it's pretty obvious I was balding on top. I'm not very good at shaving right now and don't get a super close shave. I guess he was just being polite.

Don't let people like that get to you... I did and now I have hair again (and thinning).  If you feel better about yourself with no hair, then keep it that way.

Exactly dog!  O0
Kojak, it could have been your co-worker's way of giving you a compliment. Don't always think on the negative side of things. You had the guts to ditch your system and now you have the freedom to be your true bald self.

Kudos to you!

Nice new avatar photo, Rodger, but it looks like you could use a shave.  I see some stubble on that dome.   ;)

We all get lazy from time to time.
I'm gonna have to quote Joe E. Brown from the film, Some Like It Hot.....
"Well nobody's perfect!

Peace, brutha Razor!  O0

Ok First off my Brother, welcome to the family!!! O0 Believe me HE KNEW!!

He never let on because he respected you.

As far as getting a good close shave, man all of these Bros have been doing it for a LOOONG time. Take some of their advice in the SHAVE ROUTINE thread. O0 You'll get there Brother believe me!!! It's all worth it! O:O
