I have definitely experienced discrimination in trying to find a job.
Once I get someone to hire me then they are never sorry for doing so. I am a very hard worker, self motivated and I am driven by a very competitive spirit that has me constantly wanting to "outdo" the other guy.
(Please note I work from home and my competition is just in my own head... I don't taunt others or anything)
I have never suffered any discrimination in church really.
I am sure some who don't know me have their thoughts as I walk by but, just as at work, I put everything I have into it and I generally hear very positive comments about any involvement I may have in a service.
Overweight is perceived as lazy and people write you off as that pretty fast until you demonstrate otherwise.
Thankfully my current job hired from a testing process where I proved myself and demonstrated a keen ability to understand instructions and execute with precision & speed.
