I know that some people like Movember. I find it confusing and hard work. Certain workplaces end up looking like seedy gay bars or 1930s RAF officers clubs and that’s confusing. What I find hard work is the threat this month represent to my manners and reputation.
Late in the month, I have to check men’s faces very carefully before I know if I can laugh or not. I have to judge a complex set of inputs such as length-of-bristle-over-lifestyle-commitment before I know if I can giggle. Movember lulls you into a false sense of hairy hilarity and I am never saying to another senior manager, “Dude, the Harley Davidson Memorial Village People Tribute Band called. You’re late for rehearsal.”
