Ink Isn’t a Problem At these Workplaces
Back in the day if you were covered in tattoos, you were considered a menace to society or a part of some Helter Skelter motorcycle gang. Those days are long over, and now tattoos have been accepted as a normal part of our culture.
The main argument your parents might have used on you is that it would be difficult to find a job if you were covered in ink. These days, there are plenty of companies that are tattoo-friendly. Some of the industries that say “yes” to tats may even come as a surprise.

That said, let’s look at the full picture here. Out of the HR professionals that were interviewed, only 37% admitted it was that high up on the list, if at all. That’s not the 100% your parents promised you.
