So after almost four years of sporting a beard, I shaved it off tonight for an interview tomorrow: for an unpaid internship. I certainly hope it was worth it. These things grow back, right?
Oddly a guy I knew, his didn't it came back in spotty with some gray hairs he didn't have before.

I am. She is laughing at me a lot though. She said, "at least you did this now instead of a week before the wedding. This way you can grow it back so you don't look 19 in the photos."

I have a friend who shaved his beard off after something like 20 years. He was horrified to learn that in the intervening decades since he had last seen his chin, his face had—as he put it—grown to look like a potato.
He now has a beard again.

LOL! +1
In my experience the less of my face you can see the better I look.

There was an article other day about unpaid internships that were illegal, basically, they can't profit from your actions, so they can't make you do menial crapwork that a legitimate employee would get paid to do. Unpaid internships are strictly for training you at their expense.

My Dad has shaved his beard twice whilst he's been with my mum, the first time, for a bet, before I was born. He walked into the house and she screamed because she thought it was an intruder....The second time was for a fancy dress, my 18 year old sister saw him and ran off screaming "that's not my daddy" if I remember rightly.
My children have never seen me clean shaven...They have enough of a fit when I have a hair cut!

It was worth it. I got offered the position tonight.
Congratulations, Mark!
What with both Adam Daigle and Freehold DM asking for pictures, maybe you'll update the picture here?
She is laughing at me a lot though. She said, "at least you did this now instead of a week before the wedding. This way you can grow it back so you don't look 19 in the photos."
Uh... I guess not.

When I lived with my parents, my father shaved off his beard for the first time in over 20 years. I was the first to see the result, and I nervously muttered "I don't think you should have done that."
It was the mildest reaction he got from the family.
Later that morning, I heard my mother screaming "AAHHH!!! You shaved your beard! You look terrible! TERRIBLE!!!"
For months, whenever my father helped around the house, my mother would say "Thank you! That was very nice of you! Who are you?!?"
Even the family DOG hated it. His tail would go down whenever he saw my father's face. He took to following my father from behind, because at least the man looked the same from the BACK. It also seemed to reassure the dog when my father talked, because at least his VOICE was the same. But much of the time, the dog seemed uncertain who my father was.

[EDIT]- If it helps, I'm clean shaven now myself in almost every sense of the word.
HA!!!

Yeah , I just shaved my winter growth off last week. My wife said I looked 10 years younger. One of my friends said 20.

I have said it before, but if i needed to shave for a job interview, I wouldn't want the job
of course, the UK is less anti-facial-hair than the US, which may give me more choices
Agreed. I might go so far as to "groom" it, but if an employer told me to shave my beard or lose the job, I'd say "Where's the door?"

Amen.
I've always hated shaving. It's deeply unpleasant and I grow hair fast enough, and dark enough, that I'd have to do it every day. I walked into the first day of junior high with a full beard. It's been off twice then and both times my mother, who isn't very fond of the beard, instructed me it needed to come back quickly. My father has it even worse, though. Shaving causes him to break out in a rash that lasts for some time.
