[Here’s](http://picasaweb.google.com/starshak/UntitledAlbum/photo#5237902279764121314) me on a recent rafting trip. The rest of the album are from various times in college (I’m a senior), you can figure out the chronology by the gradual loss of hair.

I have saved **Anastaeson’s** trying to be sexy picture, in which she succeeds. I promise to treat it respectfully. But I will look, I am a man, after all.

Love your gourgeous smile.

I think it’s been a while since I’ve posted in one of these threads, so now I’m gonna make up for it… ;)[ul]  
[li]An oldie of [me at my first communion](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/22/27229695_6b8e928a81_o.jpg) (it’s a Catholic thing), just for fun. I think the year was 1978.[/li][li]As a [Blues Brother](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/73/204255484_d941d3d1da_o.jpg), Halloween 2003, with my then-officemate (also a chick).[/li][li][On stage](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/21/26577400_e7c201310d_o.jpg) with Too Many Steves, my last band, in 2003.[/li][li]The [best picture of me ever](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/23/26577389_7dddc42c51_o.jpg), which I took myself in 2005.

The guy sitting behind me is my best friend, and the little boy next to me is his son. The boy’s shirt says “Chick Magnet.” Heh.[/li][li]My [SO and me](http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3160/2378516227_b7d51b644b_o.jpg) at Nationals Park on Opening Day, March 30th of this year.

[QUOTE=HazelNutCoffee]

Here’s [one a few months old](http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x163/faeriehazel/me/resume01.jpg). I was taking a pic to attach to a job application.  
[/QUOTE]

What kind of job requires a picture, other than the obvious ones like actor, model, or stripper? (and you could totally do those last two if you wanted. 😛 )

Is it a Korean thing? I know a lot of countries don’t have the same sets of discrimination laws the US does, so they can happily not hire you if they think you’re fugly (though again, no problem on that front with you.)

In numerous countries it’s customary to attach a photo to a résumé, I think. Quite unheard-of in the US, of course.

Luckily for the rest of us, being as beautiful as **HazelNutCoffee** is not a prerequisite for employment.

Man, I do love these Photo Threads! I am having an awesome time checking everybody out. You guys look like some very nice people!

And… I actually did get some fun pics from my friend’s party this weekend.

This is a new personal favorite:

Yes; in Korea, attaching a photo to your resume is standard. There is still the lingering belief that you can tell someone’s personality by their face. :dubious:

Thanks for the compliments. :o 🙂

Yes, a common practice in Thailand, too. Throughout Asia, I believe.
