not quite your normal tat question

[Ginevive]

So, I got off topic to illustrate the mindset that still exists with some administrators, but my advice is...get the tattoo as long as you can cover it when you want to. Plenty of teachers do just that--or they grow their hair AFTER they get hired (men). When your administrators see that you're an excellent teacher, your tat will mean very little. Just make sure it's not in the school district's dress code, because that would be grounds for termination.

Great point, as well.
