My company for some reason has taken a hard stance against people clipping their fingernails at their own desk.

Just wondering if I'm the odd man out thinking this something that shouldn't matter if you are doing it at your own desk in your own area.

There were several complaints filed (not against me) about the fingernail clipping. And it was brought up as a health concern.

The corporate work world sucks!

First, I can't think of a reason why someone would need to clip their fingernails at work. Personal hygiene should be taken care of at home.

Second, fingernails tend to fly all over when clipped, and could end up anywhere. I sure as heck wouldn't want to find someone else's clippings in my lunch or in my area.

But you're right, big corporations are a pain in the rear.

Yes,the corporate world sucks.welcome to the land of Big Brother.
Chances are it is a pet peeve of some mid level management drone who:
Wants to appear as though they can make a decision.
Is so anal that this actually bothers them.
Has a nothing job to worry about and is "making work" so as to appear busy and needed.

Find yourself a small company to work for that is engaged in a job that is of interest to you.It may not pay as much,but you will be happier and also feel as though you have accomplished something.

I have no problem with clipping nails at work so long as the clipper eats all of the clippings after they are done.

Sorry, but I suffer that at work. It's just gross seeing and hearing people clipping their nails. It's something to be done at home.

Okay...That's pretty stupid. Not that you're asking, but that people have actually thought up a policy to outlaw grooming yourself. I guess that if you sneeze at your desk, you get instantly shot in the back of the head?!?!?

I can't stand it when people cut their nails in front of me. However, people have to do what they have to do. I think if they really need to cut their nails at work they should just do it in the bathroom.

I can't stand the sound of someone doing that. I file mine. Anyway, it depends on where you work.
