05/29 Parenting Dilemmas
Quote From: hunterb53So a recovering drud addict (a previous bad choice in life, something that does not outwardly show after recovery) should wear a band on their arm to indicate that previously in their life they made a poor judgement?
What about the girls/women who carry a child to term and deal with the out of wedlock pregnancy ? Should we give the male counterpart some sort of scarlet letter to mark his part ?
I completely understand where you are coming from.
Heaven(Management) knows a reputable firm does NOT want to have a low-life tattooed person representing them, because it would send the wrong message to those closed minded patrons who have the big bill-folds.
There are plenty of sailors, marines or airmen who have a tat and they are giving their lives for our freedom to have this discussion. Should we decide they aren't 'good enough' to lay their lives down?
Body art is worn by more people than we will ever know about because, it is our 'dirty little secret' Body art does not change our spirit .
Do you know there are some cemetary rules banning a tattooed corpse to be buried at their site.
Discrimination/Judgement ? A very fine line, and Human Resources all over the country has a bit of well intended "power" to take care of the interests of the almighty buck, and the share holders, isn't that what it all comes down to?
NO way , some of us who are of age, just do it to piss you guys off!! Success IS a REVENGE. . . . I really don't see the relevance of what you are saying here.
All I was doing was making it clear that if a business doesn't want tattooed individuals to work for them they have a legal right to do so.
I have no clue what you are talking about, with out of wedlock baby's and drug addicts...your argument makes no sense. I'm talking about a company decided to discriminate against people for marking up their bodies and changing their appearance voluntarily.
No, body art doesn't change who you are, but it's still a choice so it doesn't deserve protection under the law. You didn't have to get a tattoo.
Also, I don't know anything about the military. Since every person I have ever known in the military has several tattoos...I can't imagine what you are talking about.
You seem very angry. I personally don't care if people have tattoos. I wouldn't have one myself. I don't like them. But I also don't like certain hair cuts or certain kinds of clothes. Doesn't mean I hate the people who do have them. Whatever...live and let live.
And yes it does come down to the "almighty buck" because THAT is why people start businesses...LOL
I'm trying to make it clear that if a company doesn't want people who have marked up their bodies working for them then they have that right. That's it.
