Just depends really, some organisations wont care and just want to hire you on ability alone, but sadly most will hire you with some basis on your appearance!

Let me guess. You went to a party, had a few to many and woke up with a tattoo on your neck.

jus dont fuck with a neck tat.


in 50 years or so itll be a lot more common but now the answer is prolly no. or you have to be super duper qualified.  get something easily coverable.

that's why they hide them in the back.  

Well that sucks and unfair.

That's just the way it is man.  Life's a bitch.  If you want a tat just get one that can be covered with clothes.

You want a neck tat? I think those look fuckin ridiculous as hell, especially if you're just an everyday person...I doubt you'll want one in 5 years. ;)

you guys are missing one big point...if you're in a real professional setting your going to be wearing a collared shirt. with the right shirt it will more than likely cover that tat (as long as it doesn't go too high)....

i am planning on getting a tat soon too...problem is i want it on my right forearm...but at my work if i have that then i have to wear long sleeve shirts everyday instead of our normal polo's...that would normally be fine except i don't feel like sweating my ass off in the summer...so i'll probably get it on my right arm up towards the top where the sleeves will cover

I got one on my left forearm and I learned that if its high enough then you can roll the long sleeves up to cover and still let out some skin.  It almost feels the same if u have right shirt.

The place I'm at, some of the chicks there have tats on their ankles and shit but they use a band-aid to cover it up.  Shoulda thought twice about that tat, dude.  U could try and see if the collared shirt will cover it, if not... I don't know what to tell u aside from bandaging that shit up every day.  Even then it will be obvious.  I know it's unfair and shit.. just like business that REQUIRE you to wear a suit and tie EVERY DAY.  But if you think about it... the general public aren't going to want to ask for a loan from some dude that is all tatted up are they?  Will people really take you seriously and view you as a professional when you have the name LaToya tatted down your neck?  People are quick to judge.. that's life.

i have a tat on my left forearm and another one my left shoulder, employers have never really cared before

im not really client facing in my job, im lucky if i even talk to a client maybe 5 times a year on the phone, so it doesn't really matter for me. i spend most of my time in a dark room infront of 10-15 monitors

neck tats look weird...there's just something about them...when i see them (especially on a white dude) i think 'white trash'....because 90% of the people i see that have them look like the kinds of people that live at home in a dirty ass house or trailer...have like 3 kids they don't take care of...and work at wendy's or some shit....i've never seen anybody with a neck tat that looked like they were going to be successful in life.

Now_I_Know I'm not takin about that shit that niggas got. He got a design or cross or some shit. I mean words, names, something like that.


And I know a teacher who got a huge fuckin' eagle on her back, up close to the back of her neck, and it shows, and it's fuckin' huge.

i relate neck tattoos to prison time, or criminal activities.
