Visible and Not-Able-To-Hide Tattoos?

Couple questions,how many tats do you have and what are they of?Companies have this policy I spose because they have to keep a professional image to their customers.Drivers only check in then sit in the trk so I don't see why it matters.They have a no tattoo policy then they should also have a clean hygiene policy.

 

I'm curious as to what companies, I've never been asked that question before and I can't imagine keeping it a secret so you show up to orientation and they have to send you packing??!! Seems counterproductive and expensive!

 

When I worked at Schneider there was a dude who had a middle finger tattooed on the back of his head. I'm tatted down and I've never had a problem getting work.

 

I never heard of that. Maybe someone to the extreme like lion guy scared the crap out of someone along with other issues and he is posting on the internet. Suddenly one person becomes the whole world. They don't tell you about the drug convictions and what other baggage they have. Don't trust everything you read unless there are others to back up the claim.

We get that stuff on here occasionally. That company sucks. I don't know why they fired me, they kept my last paycheck too.
It turns out the driver ran over a car and left the scene. They also had 4 cash advances.

 

Might check out barr-nunn I just stood in a line waiting an hour checking in with a guy that had some pretty sweet head tatooes.

Prob what I'll do if I go bald.

 

I worked for a food service company that had that policy. They didn't want ANY tattoos even if they are covered. Most of the heavily tattooed drivers I've seen are flatbedders. I was a flatbedder also and you don't usually deal with the general public or food warehouses. Usually at construction sites, steel mills, etc. Take a look at Howard Transportation or Cypress Truck Lines with terminals in the Carolinas. .

Flatbed companies :

Rinaudo Enterprise
Falcon Transport
System Transport (trans-system)
Melton Truck Lines
Boyd Brothers
Maverick
ATS
Western Express
Howard Transportation
Watkins & Shepard (flatbed division)

 

I hate needles. Seen some wonderful tattoo's Skill in trucking should matter. Neck tattoo's worry me. Just me. To the untrained customer, Danger. They don't understand, the product is there. The length of my hair don't matter. My beard is over my chest. Your load is here.
