Ok so they say you either go bald or wear a wig and when you said " fine i'll go bald" they said you were a "disagreeable employee"? wow what complete &@@#$! lmao well you go girl you shave your head nice and shiney with some big earrings and nice make-up and then act like your walking on the runway at fashion week when you walk thru that door honey!

Jeez, what a pair of arseholes... no, hang on, arseholes are actually useful.

If you still get grief from them, take the moral high ground... tell them Yes, you COULD always wear a wig, but what are they gonna do about their ugly faces? :)

norm... always good for a laugh... sometimes i come in to my computer when im down in the dumps just so i can ready your posts to cheer me up! thanks buddy :)
tiffany... this boss bitch (hope the language doesnt tick anyone off, but its definitly the truth with this woman!) is HORRIBLE! i've been looking for a new job, but its really hard to find a job here in our tiny town, especially when you are bald! i figure the best way to get back at the bank boss it to make sure everyone around town knows what they are putting me thru & how unsupportive they are being. in a small town, word-of-mouth means EVERYTHING! so take that "bitchy-beverly" (we refer to her as BB when we talk about her at work. lol) i swear, if i didnt work with one of my best friends, id lose my freakin mind!

No problemo, Jen, me ole mate. If I can balance out the crap with some smiles - job done! Just remember not to let hubby find out about us... smooch, smooch! :)

Oh, hey, just an idea - rather than tell peeps in your place by word of mouth, why not write it on your head? That way you don't have to keep explaining, and everyone spreads the word even faster! Result!! :)

So I guess what the BB is saying is that they will discriminate against you because you are bald. Got a good lawyer?Hell, who needs a job when you've got millions in the bank or better yet when you own the bank and fire her arse cause you don't like her ugly face.

i thought about a lawyer, but they are being really careful to cover themselves. oklahoma is a "right-to-work state" & they dont have a to have a reason for firing you. they already said im a bad employee because of my absences (my daughter is allergic to the sun & shes ALWAYS sick) & because i "question my bosses decisions". of course i question them, they are BULL CRAP! lol.

Eh?? If it's "right to work", how can they fire you willy-nilly? Or does that mean as soon as you arrive in the morning, you have to get right to work.... no coffee, etc. :)
I don't think they'd put themselves in a position that you could easily argue against - unless they really ARE thick. It may be that you'll have to tough this one out and just keep outsmarting the Big Bad Bitchy Boss (look, gonna abbreviate this to BBBB from now on!!!) and embarrassing her. So from now on, keep turning up all smooth and shiny... except for a teensy bit of hair on top, that happens to spell the words "my boss is an arse". If she complains, tell her you can't help what patterns your alopecia takes... and you weren't even aware of it till she pointed it out... :)

Congratulations on shaving, Jennifer! Doesn't it feel great?!

What happened to you with your boss is SO wrong. Are you going to try going in to work bald? If you do, I think they're prohibited by law from doing anything to you because of it. They can't discriminate or demote or fire people because of a medical condition. Keep us posted.

Have you checked out the wonderful AW Group, Sisterhood of Women Who Shaved Their Heads?

Just a thought, maybe you should write your Senator and Congressperson and let them know what is going on at work. Maybe that will have some kind of response and the BBBB will leave you alone.
So what's the game plan for tomorrow, are you going to go to work bald?
