Claire discusses why no one will be getting a tattoo of a dog and a record player.?
The other day I read something that truly brought my piss to a boil, so much so that I?ve found myself having to write a piece about it. This story comes after a lovely television show last week titled My Tattoo Addiction, which essentially made out those with extensive body art to be either lunatics obsessed with Miley Cyrus or drunken holiday makers. Now it has been announced that our lovely friends at HMV are now implementing a new ?appearance policy,? banning extensive body art and piercings from being on show, as well as putting a stop to staff members having long haircuts.
I might just be biased because I?m tattooed, but how the hell does being tattooed, pierced or having long hair affect the way that someone does their job? The music industry and record shops have long been a place where alternative-looking folk have chosen to work, and now it seems we?re even being ostracised from them, too. Clearly we are all just thuggish hooligans who don?t deserve jobs, eh?
Shouldn?t HMV be spending their time on more important things? Like finding effective ways of earning back the massive amount of money they?ve lost over the last couple of years? Of course, they?re saying that they are doing this because of the customers, and yet they clearly haven?t realised that majority of people who spend money in there are actually long-haired, pierced and tattooed, considering that Britain is possibly the most tattooed country in the world.
Given that people with tattoos are obviously no longer welcome in HMV stores, I give them a year before they?ve closed down. Way to go HMV! Fuckwads.
