Thats so HOT.I can see her in Brown...............................NOT!!!
IMO, I see these NBA players who think they are so cool with tatoos and think to myself, If I want to read the comics I'll buy a comic book or newspaper. I not interested in reading them on someones body.
First off my tattoo's are not the comics. They are a history of my life things that happened and the rememberance of loved one's that have passed. Most people get tattoo's for themselves not for the world to "read." I am in my mid 50's female and have tat's all over my body. if people want to ask about them I take great pride in telling them the story behind each one of my 45 tats. Maybe you think the autisum one is comic yes let's laugh at that one. It brings information to people who ask about it. It also makes my son smile when I tell him it's for him. Wait maybe the crosses or the picture of Mary that's comic showing my religion. Before you put everyone in the same box and make them sound like they are freaks please think about why some people get tattoo's. I have memories on my skin get over it. I do not ask a single person to get a tattoo, but if you want to get one I can take you to a clean Ink spot. My husband does not have one tattoo to my 45. All my tat's are for me if the public likes or hates them it's no never mind to me. In the words of Brian Stetzer (stay cats) "NEVER get a tattoo where a judge can see em." Each one can be covered up If i wish. Now back to UPS forcing people to wear Long pants and long shirts it's 2010 time to change the dress code. I could see if you have a vulgar tattoo make them cover it up. Crosses religious symbols nice flowers they should not be covered up. It's not safe to be in the middle of 100F weather outside and hotter inside a truck to make them wear long sleeves and long pants. We scream safety every day. What are we going to do wait till a driver passes out and kills himself and some innocent person he careens in to? I am sure we have to wait for that to happen about 10 times before something is done. Ok my rant is done.
So instead of remebering these things with pictures and stuff, you feel the need to paint all over your body. You also say it's none of our business what you do to your body. So did you do this to yourself for the confrontation factor? I just don't get why you would take something that is perfectly good, as is, and change it.First off my tattoo's are not the comics.

+1The fact that it is 2010 is meaningless--visible tattoos on a UPS driver are unprofessional in my opinion.
+2010Two things..First There was a time at UPS (not too long ago) when shorts were not part of the uniform options and 2010 has nothing to do with it. After reading your rant I'm glad UPS has a dress code. Second, memories of your life can be had in other ways as in your mind or, did you lose your camera maybe your bible also. What is beautiful about being a walking scrapbook? Since you mentioned 2010...maybe it's time to leave the '60's and '70's!
I agree that I wouldn't want my frontline employees having visible tats.
BUT, I'm not sure if I agree with making an employee who was hired before the policy wear long pants in the middle of summer.
The tattoo policy HERE, tho posted on the appearance guideline poster, is NOT enforced.
.
We have [-]idiots[/-] drivers here who wear shorts in the dead of winter. I think that goes along with "perception". It looks wholly unprofessional, and our frontline people shouldn't be allowed to do that either.
My Knickers aren't really in a knot, I just don't get why tats are so appealing to people. As far as Jesus and casting the first stone, I agree, but, I think that though He would accept you for who you are (post tats), I believe he would have tried to disuade you from getting them, had you met before you got the ink, besides, the bible also says not to make markings upon ones self, and also calls the body the Temple of the Holy Spirit. I don't want to put Graffiti, no matter how appealing, onto my skin.I did what I wanted to do to my body. it's just that MY body. If people don't like it I really don't care. If i was in the 60's and 70's I would not be showing my tattoo's as a lady. I am standing up for my self and what I believe in for MYSELF. Again I do not ask any one of you to get a tattoo. If Not having a tattoo does not bother me why does it bother you that people have them. As for my camera what a silly thought. I as an American citizen can put tattoo's on my body if I want to. If that's how I choose to show my memories that's how I choose to do it. I don't get why you are all getting your knickers in a knot about it. Pray tell what does the Bible have to do with Tattoo's? Are you judging me? Maybe you should pick up your bible and read where Jesus himself on the mound told us not to judge lest ye be judged. Let he who hath no sin cast the first stone. First take the speck out of your own eye before you take it out of your brothers eye. I still feel for Safety a driver should be able to wear shorts if he has no tattoo's on his legs. I have no problems with him covering up his arms but his legs because his arms have tat's that's what my rant is about. Even if the shorts were not part of the uniform a few years ago they are now. Like you all want to tell me let's live in the now. It's unsafe to wear long pants and long sleeves in very hot and humid weather. simple!
I would ask the Steward to look into this case. If your son wore shorts before and a long sleeve shirt, I would think that since it was already allowed, they couldn't just come and change it because someone new took over.My son has tat's on his arms for years he work long sleeves, and short pants. Now some new boss comes in and want's him to wear long pants. They have a young woman driver who has them on her legs she wears long pants short sleeve. Last year she was found on the lawn of a customer passed out with heat stroke. I am talking SAFETY here not appearance. If they care about appearance so much why give out such worn and torn uniform? Miss matched browns (lighter darker) holes in them when they are givien out. That to me is more of an appearance. This problem has been addressed by Local 177 with UPS Last week. I am happy with what had happened. Yeah 177, You have to remember we are not consistent with our appearance guidelines. We go around Screaming safety but why not practice it? All they care about is the Methods and can they be remembered by all.
Strange as it may sound, SS shirt and long pants is OK, LS shirt and shorts is not.
. I no longer believe in a higher being. I just believe in myself and what I do.
specially made hemmed long sleeve shirts were made to wear with shorts in my center
Just curious hf, why?i have a full sleeve,, had it for about 11 yrs now, when this became flavor of the month i never covered it,, about 5 months ago my center manager took pictures to document it and thats that,, i dont cover it.. on the opinion note,, i think all fat and ugly people should not be allowed in public in a ups uniform,, we have several in our center that are disgusting and embarrassing.. oh,,also anyone balding offends me,,and if you teeth are in bad shape you disgust me and the public ,,but hey, thats just my opinion and nobody really cares about anyone else's opinion now do they?
Very true, grunt.If you don't believe in a higher being, why did you quote from the Bible to support your opinion? You can't have it both ways.
