A woman said her tattoos got her rejected for a job, but experts say personality is far more important

I’d not only kick her out of bed, I’d put up force fields to keep her at least a mile away from me at all times.

She’s TOXIC.

I’m always attracted to asking them if I can pop their zits....

Good thing my wife has me under control....

Customer service jobs require one to interact with the public. Ain’t no one gonna interact with that

[Celerity]

My question is this..

She’s got about 2500 in tattoos, about a 1000 in piercings about lord knows where she got the horns, but in 2005 that was an 8000 odyssey into the dark underbelly of body mods.

Tj Maxx? What was going on before tj maxx?

So she is instead accusing them of lying about the reason.

She can’t accept that maybe she’s just terrible at what she does.

And she honestly expects to get a job as a *content designer*??????

Just what the heck is that anyways?

[metmom]

Maybe she should learn a real job skill.

[Allegra]

She seems to feel entitled to the job. HEY! Why didn’t you hire me???? And she seems to get confrontational when she doesn’t get what she wants.

Like so many in her generation.

I’ve had to interview and hire procurement and subcontracts staff on several occasions. Thank goodness I’ve never gotten one of those. I suspect HR screens those out before they get to me - if any even apply.

She should be in a zoo, NOT a place of employment.

The only way I’d hire that weirdo is if I owned a circus.

[PghBaldy]

Hideous.

I’m a weirdo - I’m a sucker for pretty, symmetrical tattoos on women. Went a little too far on the face for my taste, though.

And that huge septum piercing just kills it for me.

I’ve been to cosmetic counters and had well-tattooed women help me. Often, they are most knowledgeable about makeup because of their enjoyment of body modification. When you go with the latter, often they started with makeup.

My brother-in-law’s wife has a lot of tattoos and piercings and has a cosmetology license. She’s very good at it.

Not accurate. I have, “LOVE” tattooed on my right hand in a font of my own design. It’s faced towards me for ME to see, and a reminder that I’m loved by someone somewhere regardless of what life looks like at the moment.

Any tattoos I have or will have are going to be sentimental and have meaning.

I work my a§ off and don’t get paid enough to do it. After having been as sickly as I was, and still kind of am, I have to work twice as hard to make up for lost time.

Angelina is a sicko weirdo, IMO. When she was married to Billy Bob Thornton, they each had a vial of the other’s blood around their necks on a necklace.

[nuke_road_warrior]

Based on all the face ink that looks like prison tats, I don't think her personality is going to be that great. We already know she has bad judgment.

[Hazwaste]

Store manager should have just told her that they have too many white people working there. That seems like a legitimate reason these days.

[Chickensoup]

Job in some sideshow.

[mrmeyer]

Well, there’s always the circus.

[Qwapisking]

not the tats. it’s the metal booger. grosses me every time.

[ronniesgal]

the person in the picture looks like one of those Day of the Dead folk.

[Qwapisking]

with all her hardware, SHE had plenty of openings.

[ronniesgal]

this poster is fantastic!
