Amit's story of courage

In a recent e-mail we published the story of an amazing MBA, Amit Nagpal.

His first e-mail to the Stachetrust was in reference to a second lunch meeting with a potential hiring company. The reply was to suggest that he shave if it was for a job, that we would all understand. But the following is this man’s reply.

Just to let you know, I didn't shave it off.
Instead I wrote an email before explaining my love for Rosstache and it's philanthropic goals. Although it wasn't for full-time, as it was a start-up company, I believe the growth indicated maturity and the speckled gray hairs represented wisdom.

He gave me some contract consulting work for the next month and a good hourly rate.
Score one for Rosstache.

Hairy & Employed,

Amit
