As many have pointed out, they have seen doctors and advanced practice nurses with visable tattoos. So again I ask you, what does job title have to do with anything?
Re-read my posts, #4, #9, and especially #13.
Clearly many of you see no problems with tattoos, visible or otherwise, in
professionals. Fine. You have your opinion, I have mine. I'll just leave it with this...
Here's what many of you want to argue and/or choose to ignore - when it comes to hiring, you don't get to make the decisions, and your opinion doesn't count. The only person whose opinion counts from an employment perspectice is the person who says "hire her", or "hire him", or "don't hire her" or "don't hire him. It's as simple as that. You can ramble on all you want about "it's my body, it's my right". Keep on ramblin'.
Chances are, you probably won't even know why you weren't hired, even if you ask. There is no obligation for any employer to tell you why someone else was hired and you weren't. Like it or not, it's our call, not yours. It's that simple.
