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.

Ok then what is the smart way to go about it? Also as much as society needs to function it should also make room for some diversity...not everyone can live up to some ridiculous standard so we should have a society that reflects more of a varied population instead of trying to ostracize or beat down anything that's different. I mean what is the big deal about art work on ones body?

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

I did not really mean literal abuse, but rather the practice of looking down on those who don't fit in, though literal abuse would be wrong as well. Also there is nothing all that foolish about getting a tattoo. Its more foolish that mainstream society and those who strive to be a part of it care about such petty things.

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.

Because they are there and especially if its not very busy a conversation might start up in which the bar tender is involved. I mean I am not going to go to the bar to talk to the bar tender but if I am at a bar I am certainly open to conversing with the bar tender should a discussion come up.

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.

Also I thought PC was a place for people with mental illnesses to come together and offer support....and your here essentially making fun of anyone who has a tatoo with your 'jokes' about what mean things you think the interviewer might think of someone with tattoos, so I am confused.
