    Contractor Looks ?

    Do you think the way you look is related to your success as a contractor/in life in general ?


    I’ve just noticed that my ugliness has started a new level of development. Not to mention that I have to live with nose that is bigger than what you normally find on people’s face , but now my neck is starting to look fat and not fit.

    Might give some thought later , about lying under the scalpel

    No - less attractive people are more sharp than attractive people.

    I know I look good.
    tell myself that every morning in the mirror
    Confusion is a natural state of being

      Even though I say it myself... I'm a bit of a looker in a George Clooney type way.
      I have built a successful career on sharp dressing and looking like I know wtf I'm talking about... this could be summed up as 'style over substance'

      However.. & without exception, every developer I have ever come across has been ugly, and every DBA has been fat.
      In fact in the case of DBA's I have a theory that only when they have acheived buddha like fatness are they worth talking to

      How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

        A similar mantra to, "Never trust a thin Chef"
        ‎"See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."

          Oi! As a developer I resemble that remark

          I'd like to point out that in my experience(including very current experience ) there is a strong correlation between sharp dressing and being a complete f*ckwit.

              The guy calls himself Troll. There's a limit to how good one of those can look, Paul Smith or no Paul Smith.
