My height is affecting my job

Hello,


 


I've just started my career as an electrical engineer , I came to know the hard way how your height can affect your job,


I really can feel how our clients are not comfortable when they see for the first time , they always expect some 6ft tall engineer to deal with.


 


It's really frustrating , Why do we have to be born with this liability ?


 


Thnx

Long time lurker and this topic made me join and post. I'm a veteran teacher (4 yrs) and can feel your pain here. It can be challenging to assert yourself when you're short and you see the "automatic" respect taller people are given. Usually though in the end, my students respect me more. The taller people get respect from the off. If they have crap personalities, the students pick up on that quickly and disrespect them after.

 

When you're short it's the reverse. I would advise you to develop a thick skin and let your work speak for itself.

Congrats on your career.  Just maintain a thick-skin and you'll be fine.  Just like everyone, I get put down and when I do, I make a comeback.  If I can do it, you can do it.  I am currently an undergraduate student with the emphasis of going to law school.
