Oh whatever shall i do?

I started growing my beard a few months ago to irritate my employer. Thus far they have not objected.
Now I hate it and want to get rid of it. If I shave it....
Do they win?

Shave it. If they didn't know why you grew it, you don't win by keeping it. Either way, your face. Shrike47 May 2018 #2

A lot of guys ditch the beard in the summer because it's hot. Reason enough.

perhaps you should evaluate things a bit differently.

Just grow the beard snowflake.

(BTW, I've grown several beards in my life. Never got over the "itching" stage. Do what feels right.)
