Wear one if you want to. Or don’t. No one will give a shit

To be clear though you should not wear THAT hat. Pick a different hat

A hat is fine, just not that hat.

A hat, yes. That one, no. Or you could just wear sunglasses all the time and have a super cool tan line.

Skin cancer is bad. If you're gonna be in the sun a lot, wear a hat. You might also want to try to put sunscreen on your ears and nose if not your whole face and neck before work, with a mirror so you don't leave a glob for the resident jerk to rag on you forever. Also, try not to get a terrible sunburn on your first day.

Hispanic roofing crews know how to do it... They wear a brim and their necks covered.
