Ok, thank you for the responses :) I didnt even think that a tattoo like that might be a problem until I saw that show, so I was a little worried after.

I just didn't know what kind of questions they would ask in an interview since all the jobs I've had have been really relaxed and they don't care about tattoos or piercings. or talking to a nurse and having tattoos come up or something like that, idk if people would side eye me for it. I'm also trying to figure out the site still, and had only found one thread on tattoos and it was closed so I couldn't ask about a grim reaper.

Oh and by the way, I'm a woman, so a grim reaper tattoo might be even more weird, since I've only seen men with them.

I'm new to this board, but I am wanting to start my pre requisite classes to become a nurse. Recently I was watching a deadly women murder show, I'm not sure exactly what it's called, but there was a nurse who had a grim reaper tattoo and would kill her patients..... She thought she was ending their suffering...... I bring the show up because I have a tattoo of a grim reaper on my thigh. My tattoo isn't related at all to wanting to end anyone's pain or anything like that. After my dad died I was really all over the place emotionally, and after I accepted it and got past it, I realized that it was just meant to be in a way?? Idk how to explain it but after having multiple surgeries on his heart, he just couldn't take anymore. My grim reaper isn't as scary looking as alot of them I've seen, it's just a robed man that you can't see facial features just the robe, with pink cherry blossoms all around it, it takes up my left thigh. It kinda means to me that there can be beauty in death, and not to fear it?? That still might seem creepy :/ I really wish I was better with words but it means alot to me. Could it be misinterpreted as me wanting to be an angel of death or like the nurse in the show? Could my grim reaper tattoo prevent me from getting a job?
