    It would be naive to think that your options wont be limited with full sleeve tattoos covering your hands, but there are plenty of companies that will hire you as long as you have a good record & pass preemployment tests. My current company's tattoo policy is no head/face tattoos & no offensive tattoos above the shoulder. All offensive tattoos must be covered.

    I don't know of any companies that have tattoo policies but I guarantee they are out there. JB Hunt used to have a facial hair policy years ago that had gone away. It may be hit or miss but my guess is you will have no problems with the vast majority of companies.

    Do you look like this?

    I would not judge someone's personality from this. But I would not hire them to represent my company.

    They are going to be very sorry that they did that to themselves in T-minus... 5 years (or so)

    One time at orientation at SMX (since bought by Western Express) they sent a guy home because of too many tatts. Full arms etc. But he was wearing a tank top and shorts. Can you say Dumb ?

    I think most companies would be concerned about the legal problem. If they refuse someone with a tat, they could be liable for discrimination.
