I've told this story several times on this site and will again. When I was a younger man, I worked with a guy who was about 6'6 tall. So yes, extremely tall. At this time I was in my early 20s and many of my co-workers were in the same age bracket, so we were fresh out of college and at the very beginning of our careers. Now, this 6'6 fellow wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. He was quite insecure and lacked competence, but you'd never know it because he was likable and had impeccable soft skills. People, particularly women (and it should be pointed out that many of the executives at our firm were female) were drawn to him. A lot of his blunders were forgiven, even those which were intentional. Many of these missteps, if made by any other employee would've been followed by a pink slip; but not our 6'6 guy.
