<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Whizb4ng, post: 1936590, member: 54140&quot;]I disagree with Bing regarding tattoos being a fad. They have been around as long as many of the coins we collect. They have just risen in popularity in the past 40+ years originally as a sign of rebellion (my guess from the Victorian &#039;proper&#039; values) to becoming more mainstream and popular. I think there is a difference between tasteful and well done tattoos to the &#039;wannabee gangster&#039; tattoos.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bing is correct about how tattoo&#039;s are viewed in the public. Would I respect a professor as much if they had neck or face tattoo? Probably not. They have all of the same qualifications as their colleagues but I believe there should be a degree of professionalism. I wouldn&#039;t have the same confidence in the material if learning it from a guy who thinks a face tattoo is attractive. If the tattoo was due to his heritage maybe I would be more gracious. </p><p><br /></p><p>Today is my last day in an office that provides career advice to students. In the ten months I have been here I bet you would be surprised how many people have regretted certain tattoos because it will make it more difficult to find a career in much of the professional business world.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
