[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 751929, member: 23706"] I do kind of grimace at kids and anyone with tatooed faces, arms and legs, but most people who do that don't plan to work where this matters and don't care if anyone thinks they look offputting to some people. . At our business, we tend to be fine with people who have modest tattooes and ear piercing, but we don't hire people who have too many piercings or large, visible tattoos. That to us represents an attitude about themselves that is not compatible with our values. And we have the right to decide the faces of those who work for us. We can chose dress codes. We drug test too. Breaks my heart that Kay would fail our drug test, but she can't work here anyway. Still....ironic and sad. If you want to deliver pizza, like Lee, or cook in back of a restaurant or work at a car wash or some retail stores, it probably is okay to do these things. But you won't see this, I don't think, at companies that care about their projected images. Guess what? Lee has many tatoos, some on his neck and arms. Very in my opinion ugly. He has a teardrop under his eye. Kay has a big one on her chest and neck that looks awful and she is a beautiful woman. in my opinion it distracts from her attractiveness. She also dyes her hair goofy colors...pink, green, biue etc. Her hair is a naturally beautiful shiny dark brown with highlights. She has a natural beauty that she hides. Our problem kids often are their own worst enemies and do not understand that massive tattooing and face piercing can cost you many good jobs. If you are in the arts, no problem. But in a regular office with good income you won't see this often. I agree that appearance is important. I don't mean beauty. i mean how you present yourself. At least for work. Kay feels you should not be judged by how you look. But you are. I wonder how many of our troubled kids throw out further roadblocks to sustainable work by too many tattoos and face piercing and pink hair. I would bet too many. God bless them. May they see they are their own worst enemies. Question: where do our broke kids scrape together $500? In Kay and Lee's cases they probably sell drugs or shoplift from stores or people and use eBay. They certainly don't have spare hundreds lying around from Lee's pizza delivery job. I know they grow and sell weed, but it wouldn't shock me if they sell other drugs too. And Kay steals or used to.
