do you think that looks and brains and degree should get the better job?

I would say as long as you have the brains to do the job correctly  unless your a front desk type person looks really shouldn't be an issue.  I know I did temp work at afew companies and they only let rather attractive women work at the front desk position and they stuck myself and other larger less sexy people in the cubes but we did our work so nobody complained about us although the front desk position was filled every few weeks by a different person.  \n\nAlso in my opinion to find work these days  it doesn't matter what you know but WHO you know   is a bigger factor

Rather on the high end. But remember... IQ doesn't mean you are smart - it only measures your potential. If you don't use it, it doesn't mean a thing.

Yes.  The important thing is to have a job.  Once you have it nothing says that you can't be looking for a better job.

Yes, but not everything is about looks.  They just help.

No, if you're in America and know how to use a computer, you're better off than a lot of people, but with the job market being what it is, either know someone or take what you can get

attitude, looks and brain.

Personality is more important, and sometimes it's the personality that makes the looks attractive even when they aren't. I'm not sure if that makes sense... ;)

Yes of course we should.  It really is a white mans world out there.  Look at the majority of CEO's to large companies, heads of most churches, government officials including the President.   What do you see?  I'm tired of doing the same job as a man and getting less pay.  It's a proven fact.   And if you're a middle aged or overweight, you get even less pay.  Of course they can't say that because it's discrimination, but it's true.  I just turned 50 years old and have a college education.  Back in the 70's my first husband who was a high school drop out made more money than I did, and today, will all my years of experience, I still can't find a job that pays as much as my present husband earns.  He went to college too the same as I so education wise, we are equals.   I work just as hard and he makes almost 3 times what I do.  Not that I'm complaining, I'm glad he does because if we had to rely on my income, we'd be on welfare.  But it's sad that after 30 plus years in the workforce I'm not making much more than I was when I started out.  I've even gone back to school to further my education and skills but it doesn't seem to help.  There are women out there who do make the big bucks and I'm very happy for them, but the majority of us never do.  Sad but true!

It depends on whose standards you are looking to meet. Obviously their is a market for it, that's why men and women do it. I would say that by Hollywood standards, Yes you would be considered sexy. But in all actuality that is not the norm for the US. I think that the average American is more attracted to intellect than money and looks. Because in the 'real world' being beautiful and having fake boobs doesn't get you a career.

Yes, looks are important. They aren't everything though.

No, they hire knowledgeable people. Most knowledgeable people are brighter than average, but not necessarily geniuses. While they do hire people with at least Masters degrees in their subject, remember they also hire janitors, cooks, and laundry workers as well as scientists.

Nerds focus on their studies more because they don't have anything superficial to focus on. Sorry if that sounds harsh but at least they get good grades! Beautiful people don't feel like they need to try and achieve, they think their looks alone is enough to succeed.

Yes it should because all those four years prepare you for college. The better you do in school, the better job you will have. But it all depends on what you think. This was in my opinion.

Well usually I would say being smart, but today I'm feeling very pissed off and cynical, so I'm going to go with pretty. Sure, it's good to be smart, go to uni, be a doctor/lawyer/whatever else you want to be. But let's face it, it's the pretty girls who get the boyfriends, isn't it? They're the ones who get to spend their teenage years dating and making out with guys. They're the ones who'll get married and have kids while the smart ones are slogging their brains out at uni trying to pass exams so that they have a good career.......\n\nBut why do you have to make a choice anyway? You can't really choose to be either - you're either pretty or you're not, the same with brains - you're either smart or you're not. If you're lucky enough to have looks AND brains, then take advantage of them both.
