No many professional work places still frown on visable tattoos outside a suit / shirt and tie. There is still a stigma. Obviously most labour jobs tattoos play no roll what so ever.
Just a basic google search shows it's still a stigma. Yes it has dropped over time but the % of hiring managers and partners that view it as a negative should still impact your decision. Do you really need your hands and neck inked.
I wouldn't hire someone with neck or hand tattoos in public practice. You're constantly working with a wide verity of clients that have different views it just wouldn't make since from a business stand point to run the risk.
Maybe in retail and office jobs, but in the medical field and labor field they don't give a shit. I know nurses, NPs, PAs and Doctors that have tattoos, from small pieces to full sleeves.. Hell, there's a doc on staff at Hopkins that has a chest piece that rolls into his neck.
So.. I guess if you want to work for Dunder Miflin, avoid the tats.
