Once when I was interested in a particualr job I spoke to the women who worked there and they told me I was a shoe in since the man doing the hiring liked pretty women. Based on that I wore an olive green colored dress that was very flattering, yet still appropriate as an interview dress. I knew by the way he looked at me, I was hired, and I was! The position was as a mental health therapist...

I did. I got a job and the first day I was talking to another employee and he said I knew you would get hired cause they only hire pretty women here, they won't hire anyone ugly ! I felt good for about 2 seconds then I thought how rude. I only lasted there a year.

I was once hired at a pizza shop by the owner, old perv, because I looked like a waitress that he had an affair with, he wound up firing me because one of the kids he had as a dishwasher told him that he had sex with me, which was a total lie, he was 13 years younger than me and I was married, I never did anything with the kid, but it didn't matter, the old man believed him, he even banned me from going in the restaurant to see my friend who was also a waitress there.

Glen, awww I'm so sorry to hear that :-( A lot of job recruiters look down on not only the handicapped by those who are overweight, "ugly", short and "non-gossiping kinds".
Yes, I've once gotten a job as a florist

No, but that's the way things work where I work... there's mostly a bunch of stupid blondes there.

I've only been rejected because of the way I look.
