OK, start dressing like a ‘gangsta’ instead of a scrubs and white lab coat or whatever dentist wear and see how your patients react and how you business does.
Sorry, people dress to give the world an impression of who they are, or rather how they want to be seen.[/quote]
Sagging pants is “gangsta”?
I wear a t-shirt with the clinic logo at one clinic I visit…which mans biceps are showing usually. Yes, I have dealt with people who judge me by looks alone…but seriously, I live in Texas and I see that very rarely now aside from really old black women and really old white women. The rest of the culture seems to be realizing that not everyone fits a certain mould.
That avatar was taken yesterday. Beard is extra long now. Trust me, I went to school so I could have the opportunity to STOP having to do what people tell me.
At this point in my life, I know my skills well enough to not care so much if some extremely conservative person thinks my beard is too long, my muscles are too big or my shirts are too tight to be a professional.
That is the point…the world is changing…and everyone doesn’t see “sagging pants” like you do…and thankfully more people like me are coming into social positions of influence.
