Actually, the reasoning is good. If someone can't even take the trouble to take care of their own hygiene, are they likely to be able to do what you're hiring them for well?

than they'd smell worse and stink up the neighborhood (at 4 in the morning when garbagemen ALWAYS come around ~mumble mumble)

but it also comes down to whether your a 'clown' or not, make a spectacle of yourself, imo

No difference. Considering that you're responsible for driving a huge, unwieldy vehicle and sticking to a schedule/route, at the very least, you still need to make a good impression.

My apearance, I couldn't care less. Which is ironic considering how superficial I am toward other people.
So in other words, one part of the community is waging war on another part of the community because they take their community seriously enough to want to do so. Then they tell the powerless side to get over the loss cause it's just an online community. I'm glad people make so much sense." -- Tab

Everyone cares what they look like, it's human nature to want to be around beautiful or clean things most of the time. I like to be clean and look good sometimes even when I'm just at home by myself but I make more of an effort when I go out.

Just ask yourself this really hypothetical and outlandish question, If you were the last person on earth would you bother making yourself look good or claen yourself unless it was uncomfortable?

Honestly I don't know but do you ever wonder what it would have been like kissing and stuff back in medievil times when they didn't brush their teeth if they had them?

Although now I have to take fcare of my appearence since I have long hair which is really a pain....and people keep telling me I have anime hair...
my hair is long too, but its not like really long, its just past my shoulders....... i dont mind it, if it gets in the way i just tie it back....

Temjin told me not to post the picture anymore, so i wanna piss him off.

Nah, i dont really care, but i do brush that thing on my head, and i wash my face twice a day, shower, wash my hands, brush teeth etc...... but i dont care what other people think, i wear my hair long because i like it, and because temjin said that it's the "Coolest thing in the world"
