Tattoos = unemployed? - Caliban - Aug 14, 2017
Im thinking of getting a tattoo on my left hand
Will i have troubles finding a job with it? Or is there less of a stigma around tattoos nowadays?

Yea, dumb decision.
Check your company's policy.
* - iNk. - Aug 14, 2017
Depends what field you're going into
I'm going to be honest and tell you just get one on your arm that can be easily hidden if needed.

I think you'd still have troubles finding a job. I'm getting arm tatts and just planning on long sleeves to hide them if I do find myself in a work environment.

We'll honestly if you're white, you can always cover it with makeup if it's an issue

Think of what skin area is covered by a short sleeve polo shirt. That's where I'd get a tattoo. Yes there are still stigmas

depends on the size, quality, picture.
And where you want to apply.

Depends on the tattoo, like if it is flashy and/or controversial it could be a more serious problem

Need more information no one can concisely answer this without knowing what field your in and the size of the tattoo
* - 3659041 - Aug 14, 2017
It all depends on the tattoo and the placement. Although you should think about the industry in which you are/will work in and their approaches on tattoos.

I would definitely check if it's ok with where you work. Thinking long term you may want to consider getting it in a place that's easier to hide just in case future employers have a problem with it.

In my experience no one gives a shit really unless they are obscene.

Yeah true.

just put the tat on your ass
then no one can see unless u are a nude model

Just avoid hands & neck and places that can't be hidden with clothes ! you'll face a lot of stigma if you're applying for some corporate/office jobs ..etc
