Should I get my nose pierced?

Question

I've been wanting to get my nose pierced for a year or so now but I'm afraid to because of where I work. We don't have a dress code but I work for a very "strictly business" type of company. We don't have casual Fridays and everyone always dresses nice. I'm afraid to talk to my boss about it. She's kinda snooty. If I get a tiny diamond piercing on my nose, do you think anyone will say anything or look down on me? I don't want this to hold me back. Thanks!

Answer 2

Answer 3

What industry is your company in? And what is your current position?

Well...since your current position doesnt exactly work with the public...or does it?

See....i work in the real estate field...but in appraisals....and i think that since i am in an office working with only inter-office people (other employees) that it wouldnt matter so much for me. Usually companies get concerned if you are working with customers and/or the direct public. Tellers....customer service reps....sales reps. They want you to represent the company in a positive and neutral way....sooo...like i said....i dont see a problem with it if your working in the warehouse...or in an office. Also....maybe look it up in your company dress code? If there is nothing about piercings...then they cant enforce much on an official note..however...they can possibly hold a personal grudge. Either way...its your body. Do what you want with it! If your a good employee...they will look past it!

Answer 4

Make sure to speak with your boss. Many don't allow nose rings.

Answer 5

I think you answered your own question.

A job or a nose ring.

Actually you should get a loop ring. That way they can hitch you to your desk so they know where to find you.

Answer 6

If it's what you really want, then go for it! Don't let the others discourage you. Maybe after some people see it others that were too afraid to do something like that will be encouraged to! Hope I helped! :]

Answer 9

You could ask what the piercing policy is.  It really depends on the company, if it is really stuffy and old-fashioned, yeah it might hurt you because people may thing you are not serious or mature.  

You could always wear a skin-toned retainer while at work, as well.
