I don't have any tats, but I would love to get some ink in the future. I probably won't, but I can dream can't I?
My parents don't really like tattoos. They always tell me that if I were to get one, I would need to get it somewhere that isn't visible. The reason they gave me is that it DOES make it difficult to get a job.
IMO, it really depends on what kind of job you're looking for. It might make it difficult to get a job where you deal directly with customers. Perhaps if you're trying to work at Macy's or JCPenny, you might have a difficult time. I work at a game developer, and there are lots of people here with tats. Heck, one of the producers has tats that go upto his neck! Think about what you want to do. Think about the people you might work with in the future. Who do you think would care?
Ultimately, the decision is yours, and if that's what you want, you should get it. Tattoos are LEGAL, and they don't change who you are inside, but some folks will see tats and think "oh god he was in prison".... Or something along those lines
