A news segment popped up, "Career Change and Cosmetic Surgery," while I was dutifully riding the stationary bike at the health club.
This is the latest twist on the down economy and the slumping job market, apparently. Not surprisingly, the segment featured only women. By all measures, the economy has hit men the hardest. I wonder if women, in recognizing that they need to change something, even if it's invasive surgery, are fairing better in a tight job market because they are willing to change.
I'm not advocating surgery. I think it's extreme. However, it''s in our capacity to adapt to changing conditions that serve us now and in the future.
I DO question what's become of us as a culture, when the first thing a prospective employer judges is your face.
There are so many issues that this concept of Corrective Surgery as a Competitive Advantage raises, that I'd like to hear from my readers.
