    There's a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking...

    Yip. People tend to hire good-looking, motivated and successful sorts, instead of some mutant swamp donkey with acne, thick glasses, greasy hair and combat trousers.

    I know I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for my salon quality hair and my boyish good looks ;)

    it never seems to be much of an advantage in Ireland, compare RTE presenters to TV channels in the Rest of Europe, Ireland is the last refuge for ugly people.

    I think that's called Nepotism rather than the display of our best looking people.

    It's hard to be humble, when you're perfect in every way
    I can't wait to look in the mirror, coz I get better looking each day
    To know me is to love me, I must be a hell of a man
    O Lord it's hard to be humble, but I'm doing the best that I can

    OP, if you need a professional assessment for the purposes of an upcoming interview just post a pic and I'm sure the boardsies will give an objective opinion.
