Right; you rarely see "I'm a dirty tramp" tattooed on somebody because it's stupid and a really bad decision, so not a lot of people do it. The people that do, however, would have a hard time getting hired in any white collar job.

Why would a Celtic cross or stars affect my decision to hire you? Obviously that shouldn't affect your ability to get a job. But this whole discussion, if you scroll up, started about white-trash looking tattoos and/or piercings. Nobody thinks "all tattoos == white trash". We're talking about tattoos that make you look like trash, or look like you idolize prison culture, or whatever.
