Jocke's beard may take exception. Scruffy, maybe, but it may denounce "bum-style".

Jocke, as much as i would love to get in to a contest (and KICK YOUR ARSE!)... I am afraid I would be unemployed and living on the streets of Vegas by April 21st. You see, it is my company policy, since I represent the organization in high-level meetings with the government and military outfits, and being ex military myself, that I present myself professionally, i.e. Clean shaven. I am supposed to be a...an... a... one of those.... oh yeah, Executives; so I am afraid I can't grow a killer beard like yours. I mean, I COULD, and would put you to shame.... but unless you want to take me back to Sweden with you and adopt me as your son... feed me... clothe me.... shelter me... change my diaper. (Just wanted to throw that one in. ). I won't be growing a beard. We will have to compete and let me beat you at something else my friend.

Paul, challenge him to something YOU are good at - e.g hopping on one leg race, fixing latex punctures, crashing drones, you get the idea.

I would think a senior executive with Paul's gravitas could do as he wished with his facial hair. After all, he sets the conformity rules for his minions.

Unless it's a safety issue getting his beard caught in the drone props. Then it would be understandable.

After reading your response and your valiant attempts to cover up a walkover as I now understand who is the boss in your house.
Of course, prefer the Anna smooth cheek and can then relax during lovemaking. To lie and worry about being punctured by a heavy
beard stubble can of course get anyone out of balance.
