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). I would wonder if their "personal preferences" would affect their work ethics.

I also get further amazed at how the tattooing/piercing culture has grown, it is not uncommon to see middle aged people with tattoos

Seen both sides of the issue. Some with and without are the best or worst workers out there. Bottom line is the business owner has the right to hire who they want to hire. Nobody has the right to be hired just because.

Nose rings make people want to hurl.

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.

The first thing tattoos show is financial irresponsibility.

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.

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 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.

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...

Back during my Navy days, I considered getting a tattoo. Cooler heads prevailed until I sobered up.

I was at an international event and met a woman from Samoa.
Beautiful with traditional Samoan let tattoos.
She was wearing a dress, so you could see them.
I was OK with it. Her culture.

It would be interesting to know in Samoan culture how they view any people who choose not to get Samoan tattoos.

'How Does This Affect My Ability To Make Coffee?'

It does not affect your ability to make coffee.

It affects your company's ability to SELL coffee.

My business partner (we are a general contractor and there are 8 of us) has a tattoo of the names of his wife and 7 kids. It is tasteful and usually it is covered try mma by a shirt. I never had a tattoo. His 17 year old son has a cross on his shoulder.
