big no-no... you will almost guaranteed to be stopped at customs and most people will see you as a thug... although they have become more popular, people still see them as dodgy...

If its what you want mate then good stuff, if others dont like it, so fuck!
As for potential interviews etc then as long as you fit the criteria and do well then I dont see the problem. A tattoo shouldnt win or lose you a job. If it does sway the decision then just think what that job would have been like if thats how petty they are prepared to be.
Fuck em mate. Do what you like, its your life, live it!

I dont care if thats unfair or not, its business, and if something is going to potentially lose you business, you avoid it.

No way. Tats in general are a bad idea I.M.O. let alone on the neck or somewhere you can't cover for later in life.
Why not get tears done on your face and a borstal spot as well as love and hate on your knuckles and a swallow on your hand. Unemployment guaranteed.

i would have thought it depends on what the tattoo is ect too
bit late to discuss now i supose,,,,,, anyway its covered by a shirt for interviews, just for actual getting the job im a little worried about
i got it done though as ive been thinking about it for over 2 years and thought " fuck it" on my birthday
dont regret it might i add, just wanting to gauge a interest in others opinions

Chip-3Door I can see your point mate but personally I wouldnt let that put me off getting one. Granted there will be the odd occasion where potential employers will see it as something off putting to customers, as you do. It depends on the individual who gets it really as obviously they know that it will happen.
It also depends on the tattoo too IMO, size, design etc. "FUCK OFF" in big letters round your throat is a big no no but others may be seen as acceptable. I suppose jobs wise it will depend on time, place and individual.
It wouldnt put me off getting one though, I just need to find something I like and Im planning on getting a couple on my head. Been looking for ages and cant find owt tho.

heres a though btw, do you think fat people are looked upon this way ??
someone over weight is a person who dont look after them selves,,,,,,, would you discriminate against them without thinking it ?

Business is business at the end of the day I suppose.

fat people fuck me off as on the daily commute on the train.. I get squashed if a fatty sits next to me 
I am of the opinion, you are fat for a reason.. you didnt exercise and you ate shit...
I wouldnt discriminate against one tho.. I even fucked one a few weeks back when I was hammered..
