  I care for my own body size.

  But I won't mind my waiter's body size.

  yup. i wouldnt care abt my waiter's size. but some ple do since it is after all pleasing to the eye isnt it?

  but i heard that some places do care. for example. the famous b-n -nd j-rry's ice cream. my friend's friend went to interview and failed it.

  Last time, I was quite overweight.. The I wanted to apply for a waiter job, the shop had a notice saying hiring students as well. I asked the manager if they were hiring as basic courtesy then he scanned me from top to bottom and shake his head before walking away.

  depends on what job u are interviewing for. i guess if u want to work as a retail staff, size and look does matter to a certain extend.

   

  while for jobs like mac, and phone operators looks and size doesn't play a part.

  I think body size is not part of requirement for jobs got to have the charisma.

  room attendent doesn't matter.. because you're working behind the scene

  waitresses - i guess it depends.. part time waitress in banquet i don't think they mind body size..

  well, can't confirm if he is rejecting you by ur size.
  it might be what you are wearing then and stuffs like that.
  First impression counts :)
