how does one find work when heavily pierced?

[motherspider]

does anyone have any suggestions on where some one with several facial piercings would be able to locate a job? they are very difficult to remove, and if they are removed you will notice the holes. the person in questions has a very high IQ, friendly, outgoing, can be an asshole some times. but all in all a good person. just a question as we have come to a stand still. we live in ct. and this is for several friends... we love our body mods here in ct! ;D

Short of working at Hot Topic or in a professional tattoo/piercing parlor or bar, I can't really think of much.

Some jobs won't allow them for reasons that they want to appear professional, others because they're safety issues.

This is why I don't usually recommend taking on bigger guages unless you're willing to limit your job options. Now, anyone who alters their appearance like the guy who turned his appearance into that of a tiger, I wonder what they do for a living.

There is always Spencer's (which can be fun), like D said, tattoo and piercing parlors, I've actually seen a rather heavily pierced and tattood dude at B&N, or if all else fails...McDonald's. They'll hire ANYONE! LMAO Hmmm...If I can think of or find more, I'll hit ya up. Perhaps even an Animal Shelter or Salon...?

I would say anyplace where they sell music products. Also think about night clubs, bohemian type coffee shops, book stores that are hip and host poetry readings, etc., novelty shops, private sector work helping out the elderly and/or disabled with daily living, laundry facilities and other types of factories, receptionist at a salon, jewelry/accessory shops, clothing retailers, art galleries, dollar stores, retail outlets, gas stations. That's all i can think of for now.
