Tattoos in the workplace should be acceptable

This is a huge matter that is always being discussed and always has negative responses. More and more people are getting tattoos. It is a way to express yourself in art on your body. It is something permament that will remind you of something. Yet there are still places and people that do not accept tattoos. They associate tattoos with bad people. this isn’t the matter anymore. In the old days people would get tattoos, especially in gangs to represent certain things they did or where they belonged. This art has been changing and now there are more people willing to get some beautiful art marked on there body.

Now where am i going with this? It is due to the workplaces. There are workplaces that do not accept workers with visible tattoos. There are some places that i kind of understand the need to have a great presentation yet i am not 100% agreeing with it.

The fact that you have a tattoo does not mean that you are incompetent. It just means that you decided, one day, to get something to remember something in your life and decided to get it permemantly inked on your body. Nothing else.

Some people are unfortunate and don’t get many job offers because of their visible tattoos and this is unfair. This person could be the most qualified in the group and they wouldn’t be picked because of this little issue that doesn’t even bother anyone.

I am lucky enough to have tattoos and work in an open minded company where they value your work. You appearance only has to do with what you wear and not if you have tattoos. This is something i was always proud to say about my job, not only about the tattoos but piercings also.

Do you judge people because they have tattoos?
