2. Read the article. Why do some people think it is necessary to hide their tattoos when they have an interview?

(Đọc bài báo. Tại sao một số người nghĩ rằng cần phải che hình xăm của họ khi họ phỏng vấn?)

Amanda recently had a colourful butterfly tattooed on he wrist. Brad had the names of his two daughters tattooed on his neck under his hair. His friend Doug had his back decorated with a large tattoo of a shield. For the people themselves, these examples of body art are meaningful and important. Nevertheless, they deliberately had them done in places that can easily be hidden. Why? Because they want to give themselves the best possible chance of getting a job, and many employers have a negative attitude towards tattoos and other forms of body art (piercings, body painting, etc.). That is because many employers do not think that decorating yourself with tattoos is acceptable. But when these employers were young themselves, back in the 1980s, they probably had their hair dyed a bright colour to shock their parents! Fashions change, but younger generations always have the desire to be different.
