don't get dumb tattoos in places you can see, kids your business competitors will see them and know of your power, making them wary and harder to dispose of cover your butt in aggressive tattoos that say things like "drat, No Fear" and "HELL" to channel the power of the gods without alerting your enemies maybe a skull giving the heavy metal devil horns on the small of your back heavy metal tramp stamp

I think it might be more socially acceptable over here because basically everyone's granddad was a fisherman or sailor of some sort and they tend to have a lot of tattoos. Faded greenish tattoos that only vaguely suggest the shape of the original image probably done with a homemade tattoo machine in a Rotterdam brothel.

If you are trying to get a job outside of a "creative" industry or poo poo tier retail, it is pretty myopic to say a tattoo couldn't possibly hurt your chances of advancement. I am not offering an opinion on whether it is ok but there are certain societal consequences that can crop up due to a need to showcase your originality. You can say it is bullshit and all that but that won't pay the bills  . I personally am not a huge fan of tattoos because they are generally pretty bad/ugly. I am not sure that it would influence a hiring decision I was involved in unless it was really bad (think looney toons themed or just horrible tattoos out of someone's kitchen).This post brought to you by Demonachizer.

Saw a dude on the street who had an arm tattoo which consisted of a crude drawing of a woman's buttocks, vagina, and anus. Beneath this was the Mr. Softee logo,  but with stinklines radiating out from it to imply that the "ice cream" was actually feces deposited by the anus located directly above. He was apparently employed as a deliveryman, but I am otherwise uncertain as to what career path he has taken.

It seems like in some ways the proper order of operations should be: 1. Get a career going and some real money in your pocket. 2. Hire someone highly skilled to do the tattoo (think a horiyoshi III or someone of similar caliber) that will be etched into your skin semi permanently using some of that real money in your pocket. I think that a lot of idiots go for: 1. Get a lovely cheap tattoo at random generic tattoo parlor #167463 2. Hi, I am finally ready to grow up and get a career, please hire me.

Why shoot yourself in the foot by getting a visible tattoo unless you are 100% sure it isn't going to affect your career detrimentally?

Most people with lovely tattoos are trash and boring but if you cant tell the difference between good and bad work you yourself might be highly retarded. As for holding you back its highly situational and people with any sense have knowingly made the decision to get visible tattoos and are prepared to deal with it.

I said 'most professional well paying jobs in an office environment require a certain standard of appearance which doesn't include visible tattoos or piercings,' someone posted that picture, and I said 'yeah totally top level guys.' Since those workers are probably just the average Google employee and not in any position of authority. I recommend you read the 2 page thread if you're having trouble following.

I'm not saying that it wouldn't influence my hiring/promotion decisions if someone had a really lovely tattoo. I work in a creative field where my coworkers do pretty well financially and many of them have really nice tattoos. Sure, it's a personal anecdote but looking back even 10 years ago it's no longer a counter-culture thing.

hm 76% of people think it negatively affects interview chances, and 40% think it is inappropriate for an employee to have a tattoo and that it reflects poorly on the company. Sounds to me like that is more telling than the 4% of those with tattoos saying they aren't getting discriminated against. And again, VISIBLE TATTOOS. Not a chest piece that no one ever sees. As an employer doing hiring: why hire a person who 40% of your customers are going to automatically see as a poor reflection on the company instead of the numerous other equally well qualified people? I'm talking about professional office type jobs, not the cook in the local restaurant. I've done both and I'm fully aware that in some careers it doesn't matter whatsoever but those are usually some not very well paying careers.

I just basically argued both sides. I don't think open tattoos necessarily hinder you if you're talented enough (like the google guys despite moridin saying they're in poverty), but I don't think they necessarily don't either. That salary.com article has the  of it so that's probably what should be believed until a hypothetical study otherwise disproves it.
