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.

What Hiring Managers Say
Think your tattoo is a hindrance in getting hired? Not true. A popular statistic shows that hiring managers have said that visible tattoos rank as the third physical attribute that would limit a career.
