I'm in my 40s. I'm comfortable with my wrinkles and my ethnicity, but apparently, HR is not; as they've digitally de-aged me and lightened my skin-tone many shades.
I've kept this to myself, but I did go through our directory and observed the following:
- Anyone who isn't Caucasian has had their skin lightened significantly.
- No one has wrinkles.
- Balding men have digitally enhanced hair lines.
- Some men have digitally added makeup and enhanced smiles.
- Teeth are whitened or replaced with digital teeth.
- These edits are not subtle. Many people are unrecognizable.
I would post a before and after comparison, but I don't feel like putting my job at risk. This is all very unsettling, and low key feels like age and racial discrimination. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
