i have a few tattoos on me mainly my arms, in the summer when in a t shirt my childs name and partners name can be seen i feel as if my custy's stare at them but when i say what it says they say they quite like them even this old couple they must be 80 if not 90 and they comment on them, i personly would not want to hire some one with them on neck or hand though as it does give a pikey image

[s.w.c]

i think this day an age tattoo are more excepted than ever. my Mrs has got a few and i got even more Ive never had a customer comment on them.

I have 2 full sleeves which are on show all through the warmer months, get a couple of looks, but they are a lot more acceptable these days. As long as your professional, smart, polite and respectful then i don't think it really matters too much.

Give the wrong impression IMO.

this will cover the tattoo 

[darren clarke]

i can understand names on fore arms, back, legs, etc,  its the ones on the neck, head and hands that i think look bad,  

[d s windowcleaning]

I uderstand where your coming from with tattoos on hands , face , neck , head ect but most of todays pop stars , footballers , film stars are getting tattoos done .
whats the tattoo of on this person neck ? can it not be covered with a plaster or cosmetic cream while working ?

They can give the wrong impression, buts who to say that this person won't be the best worker you could ever wish to have? Unfortunatley they can't be washed off on order
Years ago, employed a guy with loads of face piercings (worse than tatoos IMO) he was one of the best we had and he offered to not wear them at work.
Don't always judge a book by its cover!

I saw the Edinburgh tatoo once if that helps

If you take him on, you can always tell people that he forgets what to order at the takeaway, so he has his favourite meal tatoo'ed on his neck.

Seriously and nobody take offence, I would be careful in employing a mate of a family member or a mate of a mate scenario. It doesn't always, but it can lead to problems. Why not trial him, see if you get any negative feedback re tattoos from customers and whether you feel it will work out ok? Say a month's trial, where either party can quit within that time should keep it amicable.

i know what u r saying helen,   the lad i had working for me decided to tell me after 3 months  i can drive but i dont have a license, and he couldnt trad,  so was basically sitting in van all day keeping warm

[mci services]

as long as it not offensive tatoos I wouldn't bother to much, all over the face and head is a bit much though

[leights]

tattoos are so common!!the ones on the lower back on women or the lads who have em on the side of their legs and wear shorts all year round even in this weather!

two words- TRAMP STAMPS!

most people with tattoos are lazy dole scrounging druggie scum round here.might be different where you live!!but i doubt it!!

they can be partial to extreme violence on occasions esp if you ask them where they got their TRAMP STAMP done!!
