Is it wrong to think you're unattractive?

Yea, that's life. Lol

Idk....be charismatic. Make everything you do say "I'm kind of a big deal". I don't think that guy was nearly as attractive as you make him out to be, just he knew how to get attention.

Hard to say. The guy was fast tracked like no other. The highly credentialed and more qualified staff noticed and a few quit. It didn't take a rocket surgeon to figure out what was going on.

Find whatever makes you different an roll with it.

I see attractive women with not-very attractive men; and its based on how they stood out. Aside from personality.

I know how you feel; I know I'm not unattractive but where I live, (city on an island in a pluvial rainforest) I am not considered attractive.

You have to move to where the fish are biting (Cliché fishing metaphor delivered)
 
Make sure you visit the dentist 2-3 times a year. Get one of those high speed rotating tooth brushes and clean/floss/mouth wash morning/after lunch/before bed. Always have fresh breath.

IM0, get your teeth to be near movie star perfect, smile a lot, be friendly but not overly, throttle your negative tone/replies and keep doing a great job. If you're not being recognized maybe it's time to find a new job? Bigger hospital where there are more males in the dept?

I'd also keep a list of who's getting promoted/raises : gender, color, age, etc. to see it you can determine if there is a pattern.
