OK, so the topic might be hair raising to some, but I'd appreciate feedback anyway.
I am the quintessential cute girl. I??m not full of myself, I don??t even date. I??m basically boring because all I want to do is work and build a decent career. My problem: working in banking is proving to be a problem time and again, because guys flirt with me and chat me up, work comes second. Being a blonde doesn??t necessarily help. My credibility is low, because I??m perceived as a party girl. The irony is, I go to my empty house and enjoy reading physics books in my sparetime.
How do I bridge this distance? How do I build credibility? Guys, girls, bankers ?? please help.

If you dress the part, sounds like you do, make a statement in the office domain where associates are present that you take your job seriously and don't mix business with your social life. Coming from a man, word will travel fast that you're NOT GAME. Good luck!
