goddess21 Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 [color=limegreen]This is a question for everyone.... I have my eyebrow pierced and I have an interview for a scholarship on Thursday.... do you think that I should take it out for the interview or just leave it in? I mean.. it is a college and I am sure they have seen way worse things than an eyebrow ring... I just don't know if it would look better (to them) if I took it out. Do you think my chances of getting the scholarship will be slimmed if I do wear it there?[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonfire1477 Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 Those belonging to older generations (i.e. my dad) tend to have lower opinions about people with piercings such as that. While it would be wrong for them to judge you simply by exterior appearences, I think you would better your chances by taking it out. That's just in case, I wouldn't want to risk it.

amibasuki Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 yeah, take it out just for that occasion. then once you get to the college, you can wear it whenever you want:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RacerX1017 Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 I have a ear ring and when I went to my interview I left it in but thats a ear ring. I really don't know about eyebrow rings if I were you I would just take it out for the interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lia Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 i have a bellyring....but noone would notice if i went to an interview, there are such things as longer shirts :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 Take it out...I like piercings as much as the next person but that looks very unprofessional...but hey, why listen to me?? I cussed out my manager! :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway I think it would show courage just to keep it in, and show that you will be yourself no matter what! So don't pretend to be someone else stay the same way you always are!

I'd leave it in, to show that you don't conform to peoples expectations. Like DuoGod of Death said, you shouldn't pretend to be someone that you're not. But anyway, that's just my opinion...[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delian Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 If you are dressed well for the interview, then I don't see a reason why you should take it out..... But it's your choice, and you can always put it back in afterwards.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 there are some college's who do not care if you come to the interview with an eyebrow piercing, but then there are those uptight bastards who do, they judge you from how you look, so it's probably wisest to take it off for the interview....

k9* Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 i have to agree with every1 here, too many ppl judge on appearances only. it really ticks me off when they do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amiboshi Posted February 20, 2002 Share Posted February 20, 2002 I think you should take it out, just for that. Duo god of death said you wouldn't want to go to that university if they're bias about stuff like that, but that's not exactly true. I mean, you wouldn't want friends bias against it, but schools are kinda different. Sometimes you just gotta suck it up and hide some things that may discourage their decision. You can always put it back in once you're at the school, why risk it now?^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddess21 Posted February 21, 2002 Author Share Posted February 21, 2002 [color=red]well, the thing is.... it is a community college... i don't think it should be that big of a deal! And another problem i am having is that it is not fully healed so if I take it out than it might close up!!! :eek: [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have my ears pierced 5 times...soon to be 7...and I'm getting my tounge and a tatoo done as soon as I hit 18 (well more likely 17 if I can find the right place) But yea...I feel like the only reason I couldn't get a job in town is cause of my lip and cause I don't have the spair cash to purchase 'smart' clothes if I'm not going to need them so I go in casual 'me' stuff. My entry into college though is abit sketchy though and I really need to look my best.....oh yea....and my vampire fangs (two of my teeth look exactly like that) and my scarred arms (from self harm) don't go down too well either :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] I would leave it in! but my mum won't let me get my eyebrow pierced, my dad doesn't care if I do he'd full on let me. thing is my mum doesn't care if I get piercings anywhere just not my eyebrow which I really want done, I'm not gonna pierce my lip/chin coz it'll seem like I'm copying my friend, and I'm planing to get more ear piercings soon and also hopefully I can get my mum to let me do my eyebrow. It took her a year to convince her to let mr get my ears done a second time, so I have some hope [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by velvet paws[/i] [B]and I'm getting my tounge and a tatoo done as soon as I hit 18 (well more likely 17 if I can find the right place)[/B][/QUOTE] I'm getting a tatoo when I'm fifteen ^_^ I'm allowed to, just go to a tatoo parlour and either lie about my age or have parents permission...

[/B][/QUOTE] so um... no you're not really allowed to if you lie about your age, are you? :therock: :D I say that you shouldn't need to remove the peircing for the interview.. because although lots o' people these days do judge people by how they look, the people doing these interviews shouldn't really. I thnk they'll only judge you badly if you give them good reason to ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
