Hi @msgivings
I agree with your view.
A persons appearance will not influence his/her work, as work performance has all to do with knowledge, skill, experience and attitude. It however happens that better looking people will get a job more easy.
Then there is the question of people trying to look better by plastering their faces with makeup. I believe that most men prefer ladies without make up. (Guys that differ please comment) But somehow ladies are convinced they need it to attract men. To me my wife looks the best just after she woke up, without any makeup.
