Once upon a time, long long ago. There was a court jester in the court of a mighty king. Although physically imposing, he was a master at his trait. But somehow, no one ever seemed to laugh or fall off his or her chair when he performed. This disturbed him no end. The mighty king came to his rescue and hired a top-notch market research agency to get to the root of the problem. Initially there were talks of involving the FBI as well. But sadly they were too busy looking for non-existent materials.

Thus dawned the era of focus groups and quantitative market research. After endless man hours and thorough research there seemed to be a headway. The fact of the matter was, people did find the jester funny. But it was his overwhelming BMI (body mass index) that scared the crap out of them. So they simply choose not to laugh.

This gets you thinking if there are certain physical traits of every job that an applicant needs to abide by. Come to think of it, I blame my fat factory, aka my tummy for half of my failed job interviews.

For example, one doesn’t expect Bill Gates, Barrack Obama or Steve Jobs to have bulging biceps and rock hard pecs. But at the same time A beer belly on Anna Kournikova isn’t acceptable either.

In conclusion, it’s not just your academic profess that decides your career path, but also Fat v/s Muscle Ratio. Lets call it the Muscular Clown Theory or Syndrome. Remember, u heard it here first.

Until next time, keep smiling.
