Default Too Pretty To Work?

Maybe we should have a poll so CP can decide?

http://www.odt.co.nz/news/world/2580...ttractive-work

Quote:
British woman Laura Fernee says she is too attractive to work and has been unemployed for the last two years because of the "massive problems" her good looks cause at work.
Ms Fernee, a 33-year-old brunette, told the Daily Mail she was forced to quit her last job at a medical research lab when comments about her looks and "constant" offers for dates, "romantic gifts" left on her desk and the scorn of female co-workers became too much.
Ms Fernee, who has a science PhD, left her £30,000 ($56,000) a year job in 2011.

There's far more to someone's attractiveness than just their face or other body features, I've met women that the way they talk, move, whatever is incredibly attractive where a picture could never portray that.

Sounds like she just needs to work somewhere that has a more professional attitude.

Maybe she just needs to have a big glue-on wart for her nose. That should solve everything.

Is she trying to get a porn movie deal out of this? That's the only reason I can think of her saying these types of crap

I bet she can't go down on all fours. It's gotta be all sixes with those things.

Well, she is either highly confident with her appearance, or massively over compensating to cover her insecurities.

There was another thread about a woman in the USA (NYC I think) a year or two ago. She also complained about being too attractive for the work place . . .

As a science PhD, I face discrimination for being too damn attractive daily. Thoughts and prayers.
