No, just a shitty attitude.

Target is piercing and tattoo friendly.

Darn! You said it before I could. But a word of warning about Targets (maybe retail in general) find out about the management and employees first. Because the store is divided up, people tend to form packs and try to weed out co-workers they don't prefer.

I haven't worked many places to know whether it's universal.. but it seemed like the environment was feeding packs on the soft-lines side (clothing and jewelry).


It's a semi-cool place to work if there's no drama. Short breaks though.

Phone jobs, and a lot of office jobs I've heard don't really care. Some retail places as well.

I work at a corporate office.. I have to take out my gauges and cover up every tattoo that's over two inches so I can't show my sleeve.. but yet there's other employee's that have huge neck tattoos and some people have facial piercing. but at my last job I was working retail at Metro park selling $350 jeans everyday. I could have every inch of my body tattooed and any piercing. It's about how good you are at something and how much effort you put into it and also that job was all about expressing yourself. Some jobs care, some don't. You can't really say a certain line of work is way lenient and the other won't hire you if you have tattoos or piercing. Some bars do care, some don't. Some retail does, some doesn't. Some offices do, ect ect.

So just curious..what are some "average" paying jobs out that you know piercings and tattoos are allowed at?!
For example, I'm currently working at Blockbuster which allows it...but I don't plan on staying there too much longer.
So where are some places or even just areas of work that I should start looking into for a new job?

Not alot I think...dishwasher, cooks (at some local mom and pop places maybe)...gas stations...definitely tattoo parlors...I think some stores like "Spencers" and other similar stores might as well.

Generally most public places frown on distractive tattoos and peircings.

Bodypeircer or tattooist? Probably the only job whre more is better.. I feel like if a peircer or tattooist has a lot themselves, they know thier s***

XXOOXX

Correction, if everyone else they work with is inked or pierced up to the gills, the artist prolly knows what he/she is doing.

Ew.  People actually WANT to work there?  I always thought it was sort of like a leper colony for those afflicted with emoitis.

This is the correct answer.

My day job is in Information Technology.  I have worked for big companies and small.  Right now I work for a particularly big one.  The last big company I worked for allowed me to wear a septum ring, tattoos, a kilt, long hair, etc.

That sounds like Apple.

Afraid to ask, but okayyyyyyy.  Teach me.  What are scene points?
