10 People Share the Ridiculous Reasons Employers Didn’t Give Them a Job

Some companies have strict guidelines, and it’s unfortunately within their rights to turn away prospective hires who fail to meet these standards.

That means people with tattoos, piercings, or bright-colored hair are passed over for jobs that they could have been great at. And sometimes, it’s just about plain vanity and beauty. Why is this all perfectly legal? Makes no sense to me.

Here are 10 people who should have been given at least a chance.

1. Move on to a place that will accept you…

Yeah, if you need a job this kind of thing can be very discouraging… but best to NOT work at a place if they can’t accept simple ways you express yourself. That likely means they don’t want you to express yourself in other ways… which means the job would be horrible for you.
