But unfortunately, people ARE judged by how they look, whether they like it or not, and whether its fair, or not. That's one of the problems that many folks have- as my dad used to say, "Its not what you want, its what you get that counts." You can say "It ain't fair" all you want, but thats just the way it is.
You're lucky to have a job where that doesn't matter, and I'd be willing to bet its something that depends on a skill of some kind, and doesn't involve much interaction with the public.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”.
