What if you work at a tattoo shop?
My friend who works at one with a tattoo on his face has no problem making over $100k a year.
I've learned here everyone with tattoos makes over a hundred grand a year, and the more tattoos the more they make. It's not intuitive, but it's TRUE!
Certainly not everyone but, there are a great many very lucrative trades and career paths out there where appearance is meaningless.
I work in telcom now and I'd say better than 80 percent of our field techs and tower climbers have hand/face/neck tats of ALL manner of subject matter. I don't have one guy in the field, right now, making under $100K and some are well above it. Hell, we need hands so badly right now we're hiring assholes without licenses to ride in our company vehicles because they can do the job, they just can't get to it. We don't give a fuck what they look like, we ONLY care that they can climb to 300 feet and turn a wrench at the same time. We hire half from the neck up and the other half from the neck down and tats are a non-fucking issue.
Things were very similar to when I was in IT Operations, before moving to this gig. Geeks and tats seem to go together like peas and carrots and we never cared what they looked like if they had the chops to geek. Many of those jobs *started* at $100K and several started curving flat in the $300K range.
All of that said, even as a dirty inkie myself, I have to say that I'm biased against people with facial tats and to some degree neck tats. It shows poor impulse control, in my mind. There's been many people who have proved my theory wrong but, that's my default starting position until someone shows me that it doesn't apply to them, personally.
