I'm with TTT here. I don't expect what I am going to say to be popular but I am going to go ahead anyway ! These tattoos just look childish. When I was a boy in the 50's and early 60's, we used to buy packs of bubble gum with transfers in them, in the way home from school. You licked these paper transfers and then stuck them on your arm. But as soon as you got home, Mum would...

personally i hate to see them but i dont think a person should lose their job over them. i do understand about the public eye thing, its probably sensible to have your tatts where they can be covered if you want to work in n upmarket orgsnisation. IMO piercings are different in childcare. i would expect to see pins studs and so on removed because children do grab and an accident would be both painful and unpleasant

You licked these paper transfers and then stuck them on your arm. But as soon as you got home, Mum would grab you by the ear and drag you to the sink, where copious amounts of Ajax and a scrubbing brush was used to removed them ! This put you off for a week or two but being kids, we still did it again.
But these people nowadays aren't silly small boys...they are silly grown ups and should know better. If they can't get a job because they have deliberately disfigured themselves, for life, then its their own problem, of their own doing, and I have no patience with them. They should grow up !

Maybe so, but I think I should say he has a point. Whilst taking in all the good points about covering things up during work, and noting they failed to be able to do so at the interview: and at the risk of offending the decent folk who have them and frequent here, an interviewer is entitled to wonder at ability of the applicant to think through how they present themselves and still expect to create a good impression. If they have trouble with doing that then what does that say about their abilities in other areas ? I was always informed you want to create as good as impression as possible at an interview, not take the, "blow you, I am what am I and you can shove it", attitude.
TTT, you are clearly very narrow minded. I have tattoos on my arms that I can cover up with a shirt, but I am not permitted to cover my arms at work.
I work with the elderly, I am good at my job and my tattoos have never been an issue, some people love them, some hate them and some are just fascinated by them.
I would never have tattoos that I could not cover and I would never employ someone that looked ridiculous with tattoos all over their face.
There are limits to what is acceptable.

He wouldn't even get in the room to be interviewed Cloverjo, if I had anything to do with it ! The man is clearly mentally ill.
These people who disfigure their bodies only have themselves to blame. Perhaps they should stick to those packs of bubblegum...at least they can be washed off when they have changed their minds, which they probably will, at some point in the future.
