One of the girls that runs a primary care unit at a V.A I go to is covered in both. I think it's hot. But most of all she rocks at her job.

HA! Killa! I might agree on that point.
I think tattoos are hot as well! And it is interesting that I have less judgment about them...

I would hope we wouldn't hire a nurse with a racist (or sexist, etc) tattoos, but who knows. I mean, RN's are in SUPER demand right now. I guess if they can be covered up and the person is willing to?
That brings up a good point... would folks be more offended or have more judgment if the tattoos were seriously gross or offensive?
