Thread: To tatt or not to tatt???

So many good responses here. I myself would never get a tattoo. And even though the OP's would be in a Private area, what if later down the road you decided to get one more visible ?

Many employers do not allow Tatts to be where they can be seen. In my company you cannot have visible Tatts anywhere. We have uniforms and short sleeves for Summer and Long sleeves for winter are available. Anyone with a Tatt that can be seen , say on your arm, if you raised your arm above your head and the Tatt could be seen ( or partially seen ) you have to wear the long sleeved shirts.

Imagine Summer Heat 100 degrees and having to wear a long sleeved shirt ? You don't know what the future will hold Job wise, so why risk not getting a job or losing a job because of a Tattoo.

But, there are options here too. There is such things as Temporary Ink, that fades or washes off easily. There's Water Based Body Paint , why not get some and have your Guy, paint or write the Sexy things on your Body for you ?

That way he can change the Sexy Sayings as he wants, and I'm sure while he's down " There " Drawing or Painting he may decide to not care about his " Artwork Ability" and just get into the " Washing it off Faze " .Lol

I myself have many " Natures Tattoo's " as my Gram called them. They are , to most of us called Scars. Those are lifetime Reminders, most people remember how and why they got every Scar on their Body. And Most try not to Purposely get the same Scar again or any other new ones for that matter.

I do look back and in a way Admire my largest " Natures Tattoo", I got it in 1959, it is 18 inches long, goes from front to back, under left breast to left shoulder blade. And it is why I am Alive today. I had Open Heart Surgery at 4 years of age, Experimental Surgery, that with mine being a Success, helped save many others lives.

So Get some Washable Body Art tools, Have fun, Erase, have more fun. And Let Nature give you the Permanent " Tattoos ". The ones you cannot ever Erase or Forget .

i find that bias and unfair that some companies dont allow tatts to show, i understand its part of the business but sometimes the majority of work force which are really extremely hard workers have tatts its a part of who they are.

It's about the customers. There are a lot of people that look down on those who have tattoos, and if an employee has tattoos that are plainly visible (on their arms, with short sleves; on their legs, with shorts; on their hands or necks or even face), then that could hurt business, because some of the customers won't want to deal with those employees.

I think the only time I would ever consider getting a tattoo is if something happened to my brother or my sister . . . I would maybe think about getting their initials done, very small, on my hip. Other than that, probably not.

I understand Texinator....aj2sheds when it comes to loved ones such as immediate family i think initials or something representing a loved one is fine, but not a spouse
