I am a Human Resources Manager. I am also overweight. Does this mean that I don't know a thing about Human Resources? Does this mean that I cannot give advice to my department heads because I am not model-thin? What does career counseling have to do with being obese?
If an applicant walked into my office with a swastika on his head, he would be shown the door. Why? Not because I would be horribly offended (although I would be) but because it is against our policy to have racist tattos.
