A Tattoo I Would Find Disturbing For MY Business

Post by 308Mike »

If I had a business, the guy wearing this tattoo wouldn't work for me, UNLESS it was an art studio, tattoo shop (make sure you visit the page and look at the other tattoos!!!), surf-shop, competitive skier (or skydiver) shop, hardcore race driver, etc., etc:

But I thought this one was pretty cool!!

You can only imagine the front counter conversations!!! LOL!! :)

I realize SOME of these tattoos represent SERIOUS art work and have HUNDREDS of hours involved in their creation, but for some businesses, the display of such awesome tattoos just wouldn't be acceptable for good business practices (unless you want repeat business from only a certain segment of society).

But you gotta' admit, tattoo art has come a LONG WAYS in the last few decades!!! Even so, for MOST people, they still are NOT mainstream for public contact personnel (unless you're working at McDonalds (most other places who hire people who have such tattoos don't put them on the front counter unless they OWN the business).

I have mixed feelings about such tattoos. I like well-done ones like the tattoos above (even if I won't have any), but certainly wouldn't have Neck-Eye greeting customers at the front counter!! :lol: :D :D :roll: :roll:

YMMV

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

I once had a parolee report to me, just out of prison. He had a tattoo, a jail-house tattoo, just above his eyebrows, along his forehead. FCK YOU. Yeah, it was mis-spelled.

I was getting his personal information, and remarked "Not going to spend much time in customer service, are you?" I put him back in jail three months later for several felonies. He complained that no one would give him a job, so he was forced to burglarize houses.

Dang brain blanks, there was a movie about a prison inmate who was very ugly. Someone got the idea he would do better on his release if they gave him plastic surgery before they let him lose on the theory he would do better in society. It didn't work. I can't remember the name of the actor or the movie. As the Chinese say he had bad bones.

Johnny Handsome, with Mickey Rourke maybe?
