Probably, based on what I know of his work history.
People love Chumlee and he is a decent worker.

Chum is a lot brighter than the reality show version of himself. For instance, he knows his sports memorabilia from the 80s to the present. He also appears to have a fair bit of knowledge of electronics from the same time period.

He looks like a racist neo nazi fool who is pussy whipped by some one named Joylayne.

I had never heard that Chumlee was part owner.

I hope you don’t actually tell the applicants why you’re not hiring them. They’d own you lock, stock & barrel with a good lawyer. Seriously. BTW, I weigh 350, so I guess no workee for me, huh?

Yep, it’s a show. Like all shows, it has writers. Someone had to be the sidekick/dumbass. He got the job. He makes 600 large a year just on the show. Probably twice that from his other ventures.

My tatt is beautiful and you would never see it, and neither would the company. What part of concealed do you not get?

Sauron’s baleful influence has spread beyond Mordor. People are turning themselves into Orcs.

It is similar to age. Lots of companies won’t hire older workers, but none are stupid enough to write a letter saying so. It is just, “Thank you, we’ll let you know...”

Except I do not socialize with my employees - IE hang out.
At a company party where people are partially clothed, all the tatts are exposed by those who have them (not everyone is anti-tatt by the way), besides everyone would be to busy looking at my Italian breasts to notice my tatts.

I’m sure you’re a handsome dude.
Not being ugly..just commenting.

I do not get beautiful women and tattoos.

When was the last time anybody looked at an incredible looking 120,000 dollar Ferrari and asked themself “If only it had a bunch of goofy looking decals on it...”?

It depends on the job. Account manager for an advertising firm, yes. Drummer for a rock band, no.

Amazing that they even have to run a story on it.

“I’m confident that in my lifetime, it will never be said of a woman, “You know, she’s cute and all...but she’d be totally H O T hot if only she had tattoos...”.”

True, you’d never see the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue with a tatoos.

I’ve worked with 2 people with tatoos (that I could see). The first guy was really nice, but then I saw the tatoos when he had short sleeves. So I figured he was an a-hole. It wound up that he was really nice - but tatoos affect perceptions. The second was a babe - who husband then was murdered. As far as I was concerned, the tatoo told me what kind of people she hung out with.
