From her Main Street column today, Kerri Thoreson posts:

Thirty-three years ago this month, Ben Wolfinger started with the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office. The sheriff at that time (Floyd “Merf” Stalder) told Ben that due to his height he would probably never make it. Today Ben’s the sheriff of Kootenai County. For every person who’s been labeled too short, tall, skinny, fat, young, old and other things, this story is an inspiration. Full column here.

Question: Have you ever been labeled too short, tall, skinny, fat, young, older, etc.?
