Loblaws [grocery store] male cashier files grievance over pigtail ban

I thought pig tails were braids. I thought those were pony tails.

Regardless, I have actually complained to management at Walmart when some freak (hair dyed pink and blue with gigantic mohawk spikes and assorted nuts and bolts on her face) tried to serve me in the music department.

I think we should help employers rid themselves of offensive employees if they so choose.

“I’m also openly gay and queer-identified. So I also feel it’s a representation of my sexuality and my gender presentation,”....

He probably needs to wear a big sign so customers can avoid him and the store.

[nascarnation]

Can I interest you in something in a larger lens?

[MeshugeMikey]

I couldnt resist

[Cementjungle]

Fire him and then fumigate the store.

Canada ping!

Why do stupid F-Tards wear those little narrow glasses? Makes me want to punch them in the face. I know, I know, I’m a glasses racist. But I can’t help it.

I wear bigass glasses...sometimes aviators...need em to drive, watch TV etc. The wife went with me when I got glasses once. She says I look like an old fart in my big glasses(I think they look cool especially the aviator shades). ‘I am an old fart’ I told her ‘so what’. I tried on a couple of pairs she picked. Because they were so thin you had to move your head to see through them at what you wanted to look at. With big glasses I can just move my eyes for a wide view without having to move my head.....I'd love to know who makes up the current styles and give em a good swift kick

My view is smaller lens >> less weight >> more comfortable.

I wear the smallest lens (vertical dim) that will take a progressive bifocal and a titanium half frame. But I have to wear glasses pretty much all the time.

Serves Loblaws right, with all the "green", "organic" and "diversity" crap they've been peddling, I'm surprised their "inclusiveness" hasn't bitten them in the ass before now.

Canada Ping!

[Slings and Arrows]

That’s the problem with preaching peace, tolerance, and diversity - someone might think that you mean it.

As a kid, my glasses were made of glass. They put grooves in my nose. By comparison modern glasses are light. Tried contacts,,,,that lasted one weekend. I refuse to get laser surgery. Not messing with my eyes unless they're damaged.

Anyway the weight of modern glasses (I too wear them almost all the time) are light in comparison to what I wore in the 60s and 70s.

If you don’t like it you can lump it. Your employers make the rules.

Why can’t these weirdoes be weird on their own time?

Why can’t these weirdoes be weird on their own time?

Because they are attention whores.

[USMCPOP]

I have worn pear shaped lenses ever since I needed glasses. Got the frames from my buddy's Dad at first. Hard to find after 45 years.

Kinda like this:

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

LOL! That groovy 70s eyewear needs to make a comeback!

[Some Fat Guy in L.A.]

Wow - didn’t know Loblaws still existed. We used to shop there when I was a kid growing up in Pittsburgh area.

All the little liberals ran out and bought them when Hillary started wearing them. Young, old, male, female, doesn't matter - it's a loyalty proclamation thing that Hillary's people chose precisely because it stands out. And it makes them all look ridiculous.

It's not new for her, though. She's done army boots, big huge cheap bead necklaces, the chopped dyed blond look, ugly mumus, etc. But they're all ever about nothing but loyalty.

As for why you want to punch this guy, it's because he's got a smug jackass expression on his face. Probably because he's a smug jackass.

[Vaquero]

I don't suppose his lawyer is Bob Loblaw?

[SoothingDave]

Exactly what I was thinking.

[NorthMountain]

He’s a sodomite. He likes to play with other men’s genitals and anuses.
