I will try to speak to all on this thread..........

That guy in that picture is EXTREME. He has mental problems. Thats obvious. You guys cannot group every individual that has a small tattoo in with people like that. that is not fair. Thats like you guys grouping ever person that has a glass of wine at dinner in with the same group as raging alcoholics.

A close friend of my wife’s had 34 tats. But you do not see them. She can wear a sleaveless blouse and a skirt just over her knees and you do not see the tats. SHe is a school teacher. But agaion she made sure that her tats would not be seen in casual office attire.

I know. I don’t have an opinion about them either way.

All I am saying is, a woman having a glass of wine at a dinner party should not be put in the same group as a drunken college girl dancing on a bar.

I don't blame companies for wanting to protect their public image and as a customer, I'm more set off by body piercings anywhere in the facial area, than I am tattoos. And it depends on the tattoo as well and where it is located. If the tattoos can be covered, than there isn't an issue, imo.

I see a lot of tattoos at the law office. Mostly on women’s ankles.

I am looking for a front desk/receptionist position in your corporate office. I enjoy working with the public and consider myself to be a people person.
