Days away....

Fact of the day : Fat people is less hired compared to thin people? (quote from a current working person)

Went to Singapore for a holiday and met up with my relatives. This was one of the motion that's mind boggling. Apparently, if an employer has to choose between person A (fat) and person B (Thin) with the same qualifications, B will definitely get it because A is fat and less attractive ie seen as less presentable and confident.

What bollocks is this? People in the region outside Asia are not exactly on the 'skinny'(looking aneroxic) kind of scale. So are we saying that they can't get jobs? Or are we saying that, I should look for a job abroad where I'm considered thin since in this region I'm a fatty? So much for equal rights eh? Think about it.
