tattoos vs. the workplace

Finding a job during today's economy is tough, finding a job while sporting tattoos is even more tough.


According to the online publication Business Smarts, a recent US poll reported that 36 per cent of 18-25-year-olds and 40 per cent of 26-40-year-olds have at least one tattoo.



The article goes on to talk about that tattoos have become more mainstream and the audience is over 50 years of age these days. Also, it states that "some employers encourage employee displays of body art as a form of self-expression, but many others worry that their employees' visible body piercings and tattoos may be off-putting or even offensive to customers, investors and the public at large,"


So what do you think? Should tattoos be allowed on the job or are they something personal yet visible but should stay personal and be un-visible? 


And if you do work and have tattoos, how is it for you? Tell us below!
