@Ganymede I think the whole idea of 'selling oneself' in that way is just... meh on its face, I guess. If people like you, they're going to like you with or without the job, with or without the looks, with or without the pog collection, etc. In other words, it strikes me that they're probably taking the wrong approach.

I get selling yourself to an employer, but that's a different sort of cost-benefit analysis sort of relationship, vs. 'someone you will ideally like to spend time with even if it's just long enough to explore their netherbits with passing interest'.
