I this guy asked me for a job I'd turn him down just for wearing a 49ers jersey ;) Now tattoo wearers are jumping on the protected class bandwagon? He has a right to ink himself up, but there are consequences. Fair or not, first impressions are lasting impressions.

Does he think he’s Colin Kaepernick?

The first thing that anyone contemplating getting a tattoo should consider that the presence of a tattoo that is visible when wearing a long sleeved shirt is that they will likely never have a W-2 sent to them. Hard, cold fact.

His choice of football teams probably doubles as his intelligence quotient.............that would make him a 49er in more ways than one.

If I have a business dealing with the general public, I would not consider an inked up guy or gal at all. Actions have consequences.

I remember years ago seeing a guy who had died and sculpted his hair to be two red horns sticking up from his head.

My coworkers and I agreed, we wouldn’t even accept a pizza from him if he tried to deliver it.

People are free to decorate their bodies anyway they want. But I am not required to treat them as a protected class in my business.

Is this a violation of the first amendment?

It takes unimaginable ignorance to ask that question in a non-rhetorical manner.

So I’m guessing that what looks like a lipstick tattoo on his neck is to prove he isn’t gay or what? SF ....c’mon dude!

Let's see. I wouldn't hire him for:

Flat brim "idiot" hat.
Tattoos are unprofessional and can be seen with a suit and tie.
49ers? Come on.

The tattoo-rue is strong with this one. Actions have consequences.

I’d hire this guy.

For a grease monkey job at the Jiffy Lube. Or grunt work in some warehouse.

But as a professional? Hell No.

I’ve said this before and some Freepers hate hearing it, but its true:

Tattoos cost you money. Even if you do get a job, you will be looked down on and your pay will be less than a normal person.

We’ve got a guy here who’s inked up all over his body, but he shows up to work with high-buttoned collared shirts with long sleeves and is incredibly intelligent when it comes to systems engineering. It’s more about attitude than appearance, but if you show up to an interview with tattoos on your hands, neck, or head, you’re asking to be dismissed on principal.

This is not a young guy which means he has worked before. He’s got a weird body structure.
