A LONDON woman says she has been unemployed for two years because her good looks caused "massive problems" in the workplace.

Laura Fernee, who has a science PhD, says her last job was at a medical research lab where she earned £30,000 a year ($47,000) from 2008 until 2011.

But Ms Fernee, 33, says she was left with no choice but to quit when comments from co-workers about her attractive physical appearance became too much.

"I'm not lazy and I'm no bimbo," Ms Fernee told The Daily Mail.

"The truth is my good looks have caused massive problems for me when it comes to employment, so I’ve made the decision that employment just isn’t for me at the moment. It's not my fault...I can’t help the way I look."

She was "constantly asked out" and felt traumatised when men left "romantic gifts" on her desk.

"Male colleagues were only interested in me for how I looked. I wanted them to recognise my achievements and my professionalism but all they saw was my face and body," she said.

Indeed she is very attractive - perhaps she might consider joining a celebrity lookalikes agency as Michael Jackson! 😄

I think it's been a while since She was 33

She's been all over our media for years, total self publicist, who'll do or say anything to get on TV

I bet there are no pretty female scientists out there doing well in their jobs and getting along with their colleagues.

Oh wait, there are, the ones with normal personalities B-)

Shame her attitude wasn't a bit better.

She's so far up herself it's unbeleivable.

There are far more attractive people around, that seem to manage OK
