I'm betting his inability to find a job has more to do with his choice of shitty football team than his tattoos.

Can I claim discrimination for my choice of religion? Quote HistoryQuoted:

Don't think anyone but him chose to get those tats... Can't claim discrimination for a self-made choice last time I checked. Where was he applying? Can I claim discrimination for my choice of religion? Only if you don't run a wedding chapel or wedding cake bakery. |

As a man who has tattoos and plans on more, it's a risk you take. Not discrimination.
I think it's silly but still not discrimination. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
Strap on 70 pounds of harness and tools. Climb up a cell tower and fix shit on top. Heights vary from 150-400' and the work is physically demanding, outdoors, all fuckin day long. You get to go out on the road and live in an Extended Stay type hotel room for 6-8 weeks at a time, work is 60-100 hours a week, we fly you anywhere in the US for your "time off" after your turn out and pay to get you back to the site, or a new one. It's a pretty cool gig, lots of neat technology (you have to be half smart to do it) and the ability to move up in the ranks starts immediately. Get good enough and we put you in a nice company truck, driving to sites to check on them for $120K a year. It's hard work but, it's not bad work. Money's good, no time to spend it. The only real downside is that you're on the road for weeks/months on end. It's hard as fuck on a family. Great job for single guys who like to be outdoors and the "brotherhood" feeling of a tight knit crew. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I design the stuff that goes on top of the tower, and I feel bad for the dudes that have to carry it up there. We try and reduce as much weight as we can, but most devices are still effing heavy. |

Hmmm.... I have a high-responsibility job with lots of decision making involved that I need to fill.... should I hire this guy that is openly displaying multiple examples of really shitty decision-making ability and lack of long-term thinking?

Quote HistoryQuoted:
I am twice the inkie that guy is. Never had a problem finding a good job. Go get a degree idiot. This. If the disenfranchised inkie had a Master's Degree in engineering from a decent university with a concentration/focus on structural analysis through finite element modelling and he was willing to dress in work appropriate clothing I could almost guarantee him an interview and quite possibly a job within two weeks. One of the guys I work with has major Polynesian design tattoos all the way up and down one arm. I know because he wears a polo shirt on Fridays. Zero fucks are given by our management because he's a sharp engineer with great credentials. Honestly, I'd say most tattoos aren't any sort of a hurdle in an East Coast tech based job. Now, have a GED education and dress like a clown, not much I can do for him. |

One would think if he has enough disposable income to get marked up he wouldn't have to worry about a job since
he has plenty of money. I am sure that ink would have made a nice start to a college fund for the child he chose to "honor". Free country and I have no problem with tats. I don't have any, but you sort of set yourself up to fail scooter. |

This whole thread reminds me of the whiny girl that got a job at a Christian bookstore and wanted to come to work in goth clothing and makeup.
She got upset when they told her to shape up or leave. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Inkies have been with us for so long, and there are so many inked up 'individuals' out there. Surely some of them have made their way into middle management HR positions capable of hiring a fine young man like him. I say we rally for an Affirmative Ink Act Tattoo Measure. Updated.

Dipshit. Mgr of Fries is always avail for inkies... Don't have a problem with inkies and people with nose rings but a great many of them seem to be unable to comprehend that no one owes them a job and that employers may legally discriminate against them. Yes, dipshit was discriminated against, but it was appropriate.
