I misread the title. I thought it was "Show us your best ta tas".

I would like to offer an alternative title for this thread:
"Get yer tats out for the lads."
That is all.

This entirely depends upon where you are interviewing. They actually improve your odds at Harley dealerships.
Exactly true Redbeard,while I dont work at a Harley dealership,I do work at an auto body repair center that handles alot of high end/high dollar vehicles.
Now,I am literly covered in tattoos,however,at my interview,my boss was facinated by them and went on to say he wanted to eventuly get one as well,now of course my line of work is one of the exceptions and yes tattoos can narrow the job market a bit ( IMO due to peoples prejudices),however I for one make a very comfortable living as do many others I know who share the "ink addiction".
I apologize to Rose for ranting on her thread.

I am scared to death of needles... but I am pretty sure the colored tat on the guys back is either photoshopped or painted on.. and not an actual tat.

I have tattoos and I have diabetes. Tattooing doesn't feel like a needle really, more like a dull knife being drawn slowly across your skin IMHO. Others may have different experiences.

Opinions differ and thats ok. I grew up when-unless you were in the military-having a tattoo meant you were trash. Triple that for women with tattoos.
Yes. Yes I will.
Unfortunately, though, your thoughts on how they'll look is incorrect.
You're presuming that tattoos today are the same as tattoos 30 years ago... even 20 years ago...
Back in the say, they were aware that skin was constantly dying and flaking off. Because of this, they presumed that, eventually, that tattooed "skin" would surface and flake away. So, they put them DEEEEEP. Long story short, that's what caused so much blurring and "blobbing." The way tattoos are applied today, they're far more stable. They don't blob.
Regardless, though, I would still love it. Not necessarilty for how it looks at that time, but what it represents to me.
I don't think you're that much older than me, Frazz. That was the age I grew up in, too. I'm nearly 38. My opinions just changed with the times.
... and tattooed chicks are hawt. ; )

--Edit--
Agreed, re: jobs. MANY jobs frown on them. I work in banking. When I worked in an actual branch, I had to wear long sleeves (tats on forearms) YEAR ROUND.
When I moved to the main building downtown (and out of customer contact), I could turn up the cuffs of my shirts and it was okay if they showed a TINY BIT peeking out below.
Now that I'm in Tech Services, I wear short sleeved shirts, polo shirts and "camp" shirts (both bedecked with skulls, mind you) that show them... daily.
A big part is your"customer facing." Since I'm not "customer facing," it's far more tolerated/

That's really funny, at my last interview, my boss had more tattoos than me, and I didn't get the job because of my horrible credit. I think it's getting harder and harder to find people who discriminate on the basis of skin color, even when the said color is artificial.
