[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 1020268, member: 22880"] In professional circles, visible tattoos are strictly forbidden. That is why Express customer contact employees USED to be required to cover tattoos (long sleeves and pants if needed). Employees with visible tattoos on their face and neck generally weren't hired. People do find visible tattoos "out of place" in certain circles. People are judged by their appearance, and tattoos are part of a person's projected appearance. Tattoos are generally seen as indicating the individual is non-conformist, anti-social and - I'm going to be blunt - "working class". I would STRONGLY recommend to anyone who wishes to ever move into a professional occupation, to NOT get ANY visible tattoos - it will cause problems for you. No one will ever come out and say "you're not being hired because you have visible tattoos", but they will red line your resume and look for someone who better fits their "corporate culture" - and corporate culture for professionals DOESN'T include having visible tattoos. People that wear ties and jackets as part of their "uniform", DO NOT associate with people with tats on their forearms or neck area (above the collar). Cold hard reality out there. [/QUOTE]
