Are you asking a question, or telling us? It sounds like you're fishing for compliments, and for someone to say, "That's right, you're too good for them anyway."
Also, if you spell "because" as "becoze" i would have to disagree on your communication skill (or skills, as most people say).

Actually being rejected because you are overweight is not a discrimination issue. The courts have ruled that if you are on the company's health insurance plan, they can refuse to hire people who are smokers or who are overweight because the personal choices of those people have led to their behavior which could lead to higher medical costs for the company. These are not disabilities...smoking and overeating are choices that people make and the courts will not protect you under discrimination clauses

Ya i know it happens! What you have to do is try to reduce a little either by walking or dieting ... i am also facing the same problem.
Actually some people dont look for all these they just want talent whenever you go for an interview ask them time to prove yourself . This might help you Good luck!

you may be right but dont get disappointed and since you know the shortcoming ,start working towards it without loosing much time to loose weight.even if you are beautiful but fat , you give a wrong message to the people who are arround you that you dont bother about your health, your looks and may be you are not the responsible and efficient enough to do the job.secondly,its very important to wear suitable clothes for the interview .one should look neat and tidy and present oneslf with full of confidence.hope you do well in your next interview.all the best!

Depends upon job. Some jobs really demand for a good look like airhostess, receptionist etc
But if in your case, the job has nothing to do with looks then definately its unfair. But unfortunately you can't take any action against recruiters and fortunately world doesn't ends for you with that rejection and believe if you are really talented as you said...lots of big opprtunities need you..
So you will rock one day.....

How do you know you gvot rejected by your looks? I most businesses, they can't discriminate by anything like that, it's against the law, and if you have a case, you can hire a lawyer and sue them, if it's worth that much to you.
However, if your career of choice is in any kind of performance art or entertainment industry, yes, they can discriminate by looks.

It is not right but it happens. Better looking people make more that average and ugly people. Tall people make more than short people. It sucks but there is no way to prove it either.

Maybe it was because you can't spell. Think about it.
