Also why would one have to be super drunk to talk to the bar-tender? are people supposed to view themselves as superior to those serving the drinks at a bar?

And I think it is more childish that mainstream society is so judgemental towards anyone who doesn't quite fit in with its ridiculous superficial standards.
Because society needs to function and to function, we conform. There are "rules" for a reason. Questioning these things is good, free thinking great but branding yourself as such is not the smart way to go about it.

Refusing to hire someone who has chosen to tattoo themselves, mark themselves the fool, isn't abusive.

Why would someone talk to a bartender? It has nothing to do with being better than them. I go out to be with friends not the guy serving me drinks. That would be so sad and lonely, no? Besides, he should be working not socializing. Bartenders can socialize on their own time.

I can imagine going into an interview and stating the tattoos are such a great way to have conversations and the interviewer thinking, "just how hard is this person going to work when conversation is that important?" And "how damn boring is this person that she has to mark herself up with permanent conversation pieces" unique, really now. Hahaha.
