interesting topic (good to talk about something NOT related to greek life sometimes...hee hee. i'm with thatgirl when i say...chill the hell DOWN, preppie...)
i've actually been discriminated against for my piercings. it's not THAT bad...i have seven in my ears and one in my navel. my hair is red, but i have brighter red streaks in it (chemically, not naturally, unfortunately). i've had employers tell me i'd get fired if i didn't remove my earrings or dye my hair to a "natural" color. i can't help it if i want to look this way, right?! i work at victoria's secret where our dress code is all black. this i have no problem with. they've been good about my appearance except for NAIL POLISH! they think it's not professional to wear nail polish on the job! (can't deal with that, man...) i could see if i was working in food service adn it could chip off into someone's food *that makes me sick just thinking about it* but this is retail...calssy retail at that. and if i want to wear glittery nail polish the color of pond scum, i should be allowed to! hey, it matched my outfit....
