Sounds like they are takin a piss at the notion of a professional shot. My headshots are always completely unprofessional with really crazy facial hair and never looking into the camera, it is absurd at some firms to require a headshot or professional shots. Unless I am C level, what does it matter

If smiling, slightly more relatable feeling. Kind of a caught off guard signal, even if obviously posing that way.

If not smiling but still looking up, presents an "I don't care, I'm all about getting to work" take.

If not looking up, adds extra humility to the not looking up.

It is like “look at me wearing a suit coat that I’m buttoning up right now” afterwords I put on my top hat and monocle for the opera

Hey guys… I’m a case worker in child safety and I’m someone who loves being outdoors/dies at a desk all day. I’m hoping to organise that at least once a week I can go to a cafe and catch up on all my case notes that need to go into the system.
So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

At one time I had status on most airlines and hotels but I never bothered to focus on accumulating points since it seemed like they were infinite and I booked on convenience. Oh have times changed! I even let go of Amex platinum, just wasn’t worth it to me. Base airport LAX/SNA so no airline pref.
