it has been a terrible day ....
i was going to take a photo for some certificates needed outside sudan , to one of the countries were a completely shaved face is the norm !
so .. i thought it might be regraded as some sort of casual if i took a photo with my mustache... i don't let it grow dense normally , but i thought for a while even this might not be acceptable ... particularly in conditions where choosing people for positions have no definite criteria .. impressions matters !
so i shaved it .... well it was TERRIBLE .. trying to convince myself its just i am not familiar with that .. i went and took 20 pics ..the photographer took 3 shots .. then showed me one of them asking whether its ok ... my gesture showed him dissatisfaction .. but it seems he just asked that question as a routine ...
either he didn't want to take a new shot .. or he found it is not going to work .. cos he didn't offer anything ... and i didn't want to argue much .. cos the response could be something like ( do u want me to borrow a face for u ) , such bitter responses are common here .. should that happened i would have had to drag my tail and escape with that uncommon face for people at my age !
i got the photos .. returned home .. took another look at them .. threw them to the rubbish bin :mad:
well now i am convinced that cultural differences in styling has quite logical subjective justification !
and no job is worthy that buffoonery !mile:
just it lets hope the good chance of having one work free day before the weekend will be enough period for regrowth .....
and furthermore a chance for experiencing the house arrest
