My 2 cents, it only matters if it's idiotic, like on your face and neck, and over whelming.
If you just have your ship name, company, squadren, MOM, kids name etc etc on your arm, not the entire arm that looks like you dipped it in a bucket of ink, then it shouldn't matter.
A couple of tattoo's like that is very common, my problem is when you try to act like dennis rodman, that is idiotic!!!!
I know I'm getting old, but in my day a man had a tattoo or 2, and women had "ONE" ear ring per ear.
Not this freak BS with holes poked all over, and tattoo's like a gang banger or basketball player!!!!
It's winter time, wear a turtle neck and impress the hell out of them with your skill & knowledge and come summer, nobody will care.
Plenty of linemen & splicers have tattoo's!!!! or did before I retired.
Good luck.
