People with tatoos are always making this argument. They want to change society and really value their "individualism".

It is a bit boring and "individualism" doesn't always "fit" with business nor is it necessarily the best and most logical choice.

Your applying to jobs that don't require education or experience and almost anyone can do well. Why blame an employer for wanting to hire someone who will fit in rather than someone who has identified themselves as someone who does what she can not to fit in? Someone who goes against the grain?

And why would they want to hire you when you'll probably get bored and leave in 6 months to a year, you're educated right?

Sure, creativity and thinking are a good thing in some positions but your tattoos don't even show that. They show the equalivelant of a 3 year old holding a tantrum "but I don't wanna fit in!!! I wanna be an individual waaaaa!"

That attitude is showing in your posts and likely in your interviews.

Question though, who goes to a bar to talk to the bar tender? unless you're super drunk and chatty or trying to get him to make your drinks stronger or give free drinks there isn't a need.
