There's no such thing as universally attractive. Be thankful you're not universally UNattractive.
There are very few people who are universally unattractive.
Seriously, there are women who appeal to a much broader demographic, and literally never have to second guess themselves like me. In some environments I get lucky and my looks are well received but just when I am feeling totally confident I'm in another environment where I'm reminded that my looks have limitations.
Well, I've always prided myself on being funny, intelligent, and successful. Looks are secondary. All you're doing is making yourself feel insecure by worrying about it, which in itself is unattractive.

I have to worry about it because I've had people judge my appearance without me even asking for their opinion
There's no big mystery here. Everyone has different tastes in the opposite sex. Some guys are going to think you're beautiful and others just 'meh'.
This.
OP, the moral to the story you posted about the guys in your breakroom is: (EARTHSHAKING NEWS) beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some guys will find you gorgeous, others will find you "meh". That's life. Get used to it. We all do. If you're batting roughly 50-50, you're doing well. It's really not that unusual for men to discuss a woman's looks within earshot, either. I've heard guys discussing me who were walking right behind me, or passing me on the street. Some guys lack common sense and are callous that way. Focus on the other guys.
I just wish I were universally attractive. The type of women that all men like. They never get rejected
OK, I have to agree with the person who said you're probably pretty young. This sounds like something a teen would say. Here's reality: the women who are universally attractive tend to get a lot of attention they don't want. They get creeps (think: stalking), they get outright propositioned by strangers, guys who want to use them for sex and nothing more, guys who want to show them off, but cheat on them behind their back, you name it, they get it. Be grateful that your glass is half full. More than half full, it sounds like. Be thankful for what you have. You're actually pretty fortunate.

I would be more sure of myself if I were so pretty that i had men stalking me. I've never been stalked before

OK, this is seriously crazy. I'm sure the others will have a lot to say.
Just curious, what was your highschool experience? Didn't you get feedback about your looks by the way people reacted to you at school?
People gain self-confidence not by knowing what everyone thinks of their looks (well...except for the 10's, maybe), but by developing an engaging personality. Think of others, instead of yourself. Volunteer for people less fortunate than yourself. Find a cause to support. Get involved in the world. Read. Learn. Be somebody. Your looks are only temporary. Your personality lasts a lifetime.
