Why is that a problem?

Looking for reasons not to hire someone is what losers do.

If the job includes instilling confidence in the customer, of course they can.

But for some jobs, like working on the loading dock at Walmart, probably not.

Well no shit no one would want to hire that thing.

As a bank teller probably not. As a cashier at a tattoo or body piercing shop that’s a different story.

Did she want a job as a Harvard professor? She couldn't get hired as a Walmart greeter with a face that would scare little kids.
