But why not asked "can you spot the blonde?" Or "can you spot the one with eye problems?" Or "can you spot the one who has not problems with showing some skin?" Or "can you spot the one that comes close to retirement?" Or "can you spot the one with the wrong tie?"
...Do not let outward appearances fool you into thinking you know that person and you can thereby judge him or her, because that is how racisim, discrimination, any other inequality or stupid harassment start.
<span><span>That has nothing to do with any importance of any job, Guest- It has to do with how I have seen how -in this case- some of of my -former- collegues have been treated by others because of some aspect of how they looked. And it ruined their lives. Red hair? Heeeeey Victim! Blonde? Yeeeeeeah reason to make bad jokes! Big boobs? Bummer for her but she was branded as using her 2 assets to get promoted. Black AND female? Hey- Why even try to get promoted anyhow...? And no I have not been a victim myself, I have been a witness.
Sorry I will not lighten up- I quit a job over it after we as employees worked our boss out because he let these things happen and it took me about 3 years to recover. That was about 7 years back. This kind of things may seem funny to you, but I think it is very bad taste and I have seen it totally ruin lives. So no- No tranc's but instead I hope some folks here will realise what this can amount to and not just some innocent fun.</span></span>
This is a wind-up? Because I have a Dilbert book that has the very same joke about "what your clothes say about your job". The IT guy is in Jesus sandles and long scragly hair with beard, with the tagline "I work in IT, worship me"

<span><span>Jeez Foreigner1, you need to lighten up a smidge.</span></span>
Sorry no.
Since at my job I have seen how this can wreck some collegues, I will not lighten up anymore over this kind of things.
Fine. Enjoy your umbrage. Suck down some more Pepto-Bismal and keep pretending that your job is important.
