Typically, and unfortunately, an abundance of tattoos and
piercings means, "Do Not Hire Me."

In 1992, the Peoples Republic of Santa Cruz (City) passed an ordinance
making it illegal to discriminate by hiring on the basis of personal
appearance. It was originally intended to protect overweight and
obese employees, but rapidly expanded into tattoos and such. They
change "personal appearance" to a more vague "physical
characteristics". The standard joke is that the only legal way to
interview a prospective employee is over the telephone.
