A Little Extreme? A FIRST Tattoo?

[Matt Reiland]

Make sure you think long and hard about where you are going to put a tattoo!

I know MANY people that got them earlier in life in places they thought were really cool at the time: biceps, forearms, neck....
Now later on in life they decided to change things around and most now wear long sleeve shirts into business meetings because they are concerned about how others in a business setting may feel about it. Don't get me wrong, I like tattoo's, I have one on my shoulder blade, I figured in a place like that I could show it when I wanted and if I didn't want to show it no one would know about it. Right or Wrong some people have strong opinions about tattoo's and those people may be the ones in charge of your future career path.

Think about your future, not just now. Laser surgery to remove one isn't really that fun either. I have also seen allot of really lousy tattoo's that look pretty terrible. I would put a FIRST tattoo right up there with putting your girlfriends name on your arm. There is a chance in the long run it might work out, but later you may not be so excited about FIRST and you may wish you didn't do it.

Your choice either way.
