Anything about you that sets you apart works against.
This is obviously false. Doing good productive work sets you apart. Speaking knowledgably on the topic in meetings sets you apart. Doing shitty work and sounding like a dumbass in meetings does too. Being different is a double edged sword; make sure you can wield it well.
I agree completely. Being/looking unique is a double edged sword; you can be the incompetent wierdo or the cool punk rock guy who is uber-compentent, but most of all it gets you attention good or bad. You will stick out in people's minds and you have to take control of that and modl your image with your boss, coworkers and clients.
