    While I am waiting on paperwork to clear so that I can continue with the hire process it occurred to me that I should probably ask what Prime's tattoo policy is. I have tattoos that are visible in short sleeves but are covered in long sleeve shirts. Will that be a problem for Prime? Coming from a retail management background, I am used to having to cover my ink, just wondering if they could get me sent home during the physical.

    OH MY GAWD!!!! Tattoos !!??

    You MUST be one of those crazy gun-toting gang thugs. Prime certainly doesn't want you in one of their trucks!

    If you've seen the most beautiful, wonderful human beings blessed with a nationally recognized wellness plan at a company I cannot speak more highly of, guided expertly by caring management that regularly have butterflies and hummingbirds flying from their buttocks, I can't see it being a problem. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's not an issue.

    I hope that's the case and I appreciate your response. As far as me being one of those 'crazy, gun-toting, gang thugs', well, you're batting about .500. 😜

    Prime doesn't care as long as you can look reasonably professional

    That won't be an issue at all. They all disappear in long pants and long sleeves. I appreciate the insight.

    And reasonably professional does not include flip flops, or fingerless gloves !

    Welcome back from the depths of H E double hockey sticks - otherwise known as RETAIL MANAGEMENT !!

    You'll be fine. Like Easy Steamer said, and as long as the ink isn't over the top.

    BTW, just ignore the peanut gallery... generally what pours out of THEIR trucks is totally disgusting.

    I can't say they're all stellar individuals - the uniform helps, but it's still the old 'lipstick on a pig' deal.

    Don't take too much offence - actually, Prime isn't the worst I've seen lately . . .

    I find it interesting that random drivers who have never even passed the front door at Prime KNOW so much about Prime and how it operates. Does your carrier operate a nationally recognized driver wellness plan?
