Do you think tattoos are becoming more mainstream in the hospitality industry?
I recently started a job at a Doubletree (branch of Hilton) and noticed a girl that had tattoos down to her wrists. I asked her if she got the tats before or after she was hired. She said "after, but I'm supposed to keep them covered". Her sleeves were rolled up- I saw them. No one said a word. I also worked with a guy last weekend that had "gangsta" tats up & down his arms, including letters on his fingers. He was a SERVER, not a bus or runner. We also went to Office Max & the cashier was a young, cute girl with tats on the insides of both wrists (wearing short sleeves).
So do you think people are being hired more on ability, availability & personality rather than appearance and ink?

no way people are still beeing hired for appearance. though it is possible that some are more accepting of others appearance and tattoos. but most of the time its best to keep you tattoos hidden because its not "professional".
actually a friend of mine was fired from her internship at a hair salon because her boss basically called her fat and ugly (was not very nice!!!)
so basically depending on the work environment an employer is very likely to hire someone on their look (if there professional looking or well kept etc...)
