In all my life I have never seen a dwarf working in a shop, not even a shoe shop where their small stature would be a plus.
How come?

A dwarf works at the bakery in my local village
Now that you come to mention it neither have I!
Movies and panto is true as I know these things pay well. Perhaps being a dwarf is a strong USP and so they can make better money other ways... dwarf tossing aside.
Why work when you get money for doing nowt.
I think in this day and age people are much more broadminded and accepting of little folk especially with the popularity of the Lord of rings, Hobbit movies.
No it is not really a disability as far as I know and they would not recieve money for this.
That.
I'm not sure if she is a dwarf (might be a bit tall*), but there is a very small person who works at my local Tesco.
It's most likely that because there aren't that many you rarely run into them, I rarely if ever see one in the street, but that doesn't mean they never go outside
*I can't remember the height requirement.
Can't get on the corporate ladder if your legs are too little to climb it.
(Tom Sharpe reference!)
Use a step!!
:eek: Did you wear nappies until you reached 5 feet tall?
You really should look up Achondroplasia and other forms of dwarfism, it is a disability, there are many parts of the condition that people aren't aware of and it isn't quite the barrel of laughs that people seem to think. Hydrocephelus is very common with dwarfism, that can lead to death, early arthritis, spinal stenosis, breathing problems, dental problems, and then of course dealing with ignorant fools who think you're just a joke.
