AMITE, La. - Decked out in full cap and gown, complete with a valedictorian cord, Andrew Jones showed up to his graduation from Amite High School ready to experience his hard work paying off.
He didn't get the chance because of what he was wearing on his face.
"Eventually they took my gown," he recalled, "They told me they had to take my gown from me."

Yes the answer is A
> You are condemning me for not knowing his race.
That’s right. Your ignorance of his race reveals that you didn’t even click on the link to read the story before spewing nonsense all over this thread.
If anyone who worked for me demonstrated such a lack of discipline in doing due diligence, they would be fired on the spot - necessary, if I were to adhere to the terms of my business insurance. I wouldn’t even have a choice in the matter.
Oh, and speaking of rules... you’re repeatedly violating this forum’s rules with your name calling.
Due diligence on Free Republic is not a requirement of employment.
As far as looking at some High School Punk that wants to be special, I probably did miss his bitch.
I don’t care. I hire the best. Race has no marker to me.
That was a hashtag
“You don’t win any special prizes in your coffin for being a follower..”
And damn few for being a troublemaker either. You have to pick your battles. Randomly thumbing your nose at convention earns you a lifetime position at Starbucks.
Due diligence is a way of life. Anyone who would spout an opinion so many times and dig in to the degree you’ve dug into it without doing the most basic of due diligence clearly does not practice it in a professional environment, or it would be instinct. I wouldn’t have to request it.
You’ve disqualified yourself for any form of intellectual work, as all such work requires a disciplined practice of due diligence which you have demonstrated beyond any doubt that you do not possess in whatever skill set you may have.
If I hired someone like yourself I would get sued out of business within a year, and I’d deserve it.
Alright Snowflake, go to your safe-zone, it is early Saturday morning. Wake up and find a flower in your hair.
Thank God you will never be there. I make money, you don't.
That’s a laughable comment to make to someone who saw his first six-figure job offer a quarter century ago.
Man, you’re just a rolling embarrassment... pitiable.
I’m probably talking to someone in a nursing home suffering from dementia, so I’m going to stop now and leave you to marinate in your crazy by yourself.
now the hair on my head is gone and it only grows out of my ears and nose! Life is unfair...

You are comedy gold my friend.
I still remember “at least he has consistent taste in women, all brunettes with bars over their eyes”
I may (probably will) use “medal aged”. I also have a titanium pins in one leg, so I’m medal aged +1!
thanks for that link!
Where did you read that? The dress code was for the whole year. They ignored it.
You have never dealt with managing people have you?
Wherever he goes for the rest of his life he must prove...
he’s not transgender.
One of the many benefits of uniforms and grooming codes is that it requires students to stand out amongst their peers in more unique ways. Students can’t use thier “style,” or their parents’ credit cards, to set themselves apart from the crowd. They must hone thier academic, athletic, and creative skills to gain recognition. How does growing facial hair, something that almost all males of his age can do, set him apart? Next we’ll be be paying him to shake it, flush, and wash his hands. As one who is contemplating starting her own business, the thought of hiring somebody so simpleminded is frightening. This person actually thinks that wearing a beard is that big of a deal, yet he can’t even speek proper English! Employers want workers who think outside of the box, not workers who think they’re special because they can do something that most post-pubescent males can do. This is not healthy rebellion, it’s the narcissism that is all too common in his generation. Rant off!
Having left high school, he is entitled to be known as “Mr. Jones,” and will be addressed as such in college. Mr. Jones claims that the school has not hitherto been enforcing the no-beard policy strictly. I find it in ill grace for the school to make this big a deal over a policy which it knows does not apply to Mr. Jones now that he is out - and ceased to be operative the instant he received his diploma.
