I had a pierced tatted up server at a local fast-food-on-a-plate franchise BC19, a couple of fresh piercings looked a little raw. After menus were passed out, I told the date, “we’re leaving I hope you don’t mind” she nodded and we departed. If she had asked why or declined to leave, she was on her own.

Whenever a clerk with a nose ring serves me, I am always tempted to clip it with a rope and pull.

Wrong question
‘How does this affect my ability to make coffee?’

Right Question
How does it help project a favorable the image of the business?


Source of much of the pathology of the over-tatted - look at me, it's all about me.

Have no issue with discreetly placed tattoo. Have considered one myself, but the thought of a favored design has never persisted long enough to justify it's permanence.

The first thing tattoos show is financial irresponsibility.

Can we add obese to the list not only because it’s unappetizing but also indicative of negative personal choices?

i don’t like to see facial/tongue piercings on food service workers. I also hate huge “sideshow bob” hair.
If you look like you don’t know how to wash I don’t want ya touching my food.

I'm with you. It's hard for me to complain about my daughter having a light beige Trinity symbol tattoo on her arm. She says it's a conversation starter about devotion to Jesus.

Maybe it's my fault for telling my kids silly stories in the Bible, including Abraham's servant using a nose ring to woo Rebekah for Isaac (Genesis 24:22, though the Hebrew word "nexem" might be earring LOL).

If I was hiring a candidate would lose points for visible and excessive tattoos & piercings, especially on a pretty girl (yes I'm a sexist pig).

Pretty girls are supposed to be customer facing. That reminds me of a story from High School. One of my friends used to get busted on because he was “pretty”. One day he made a big deal out of his promotion to cashier at McDonalds. We all told him that he was pretty like a girl and that’s the only way he got to be a cashier.

This is the second day that I have seen an article written by this author. It is painfully bad.

She writes like a 6th grader with a word count target.

I think it is the former. Tattoos are everywhere in the 40 year old and younger set. For various reasons I visit the hospital a few times a month.
Even some of the Urgent care staff or Medical Assistants have those sleeve tattoos, that look like a striped Barber pole.

I wouldn’t think most Starbucks customers would mind looking at them, but personally I wouldn’t hire someone to interface with the public who had visible tats or nose rings. Frankly, the whole thing is gross and demeaning. I don’t want to look at someone’s buggery nose ring or to question their choices in body art when I am trying to deal with them any more than I want them to tell me which pronouns I should use to address them.

Tattoos have destroyed a generation of female beauty.
*********
How about a free government tattoo removal program for the sake of female beauty restoration? (One of my daughters would run to the removal site.) Use some of the money wasted on the Ukraine.

more tattoos and more piercings = demonstrates poor decision making for life, probably driven by a greater chance of having mental health issues

Life’s reality...even if a given individual may be perfectly fine.

It might be easier to ask some questions...

1. Did you vote for Biden?
2. How many genders exist?
3. etc...
