25 Job-Stopping Tattoos for People Who DGAF

Like Mike.

You won’t walk into Starbucks and land a job with most of these tats, but then again, none of these people probably have any desire to.

If you’re thinking about getting a “really cool tattoo” that’s not concealable, you may want to take a minute and consider the consequences. If my art career falls through, is working a corporate job something I want to have as an option? Because at most jobs, a face tattoo or blue-inked eyes is an automatic violation of company policy, not to mention a monumental obstacle to hurdle during the interview process at those positions that will even employ an individual with a face tattoo. But. Hey. Fortune favors the bold and what most people would consider a handicap in the wide world of employment, can actually be a life-saver. Turned down for a job at your local bank? *Starts a successful business*  — thank you face tattoo for saving me from a long life of corporate misery.

Here are 25 people we can thank for having the guts to get a few truly awesome works of art in places most of us would never dream of.
