I once was the owner of a small financial company, and the time came when we had to hire an in-house lawyer who would report directly to me.
One of the applicants for the position was a breathtakingly beautiful woman who was very qualified for the job. But I knew that if I hired her, I would never be able to concentrate on the work because I couldn’t take my eyes off her. Also, I was engaged to be married at the time.
So I made the immediate decision not to hire her, and sadly (though discreetly) watched her as she walked out the door at the end of the interview.
