Cat I Like Tattos And Maybe 3 People Shirt
In our modern, diverse and inclusive workplaces, should it really be about the professional skills and not the personal appearance? But it is the impression the tattoo gives, or rather the perception it gives others about your attitudes to discipline that can be damaging. A dragon tattoo might not convince a prospective employer that you are really hungry for a job as, let’s say, an accountant – won’t you just be thinking about dragons and not spreadsheets? Well, many more people are thinking not.The lines between work and life are increasingly blurred, with the balance tipped in work’s favour – we are accessible 24/7 and often expected to check emails at weekends. But what about reclaiming some ground for ‘life’ and being able to bring some of that dragon-love to the desk.

The rising obsession of tattoos amongst celebrities is leading to a wider normalising of them amongst the public. For many, the media exposure to tattoos is their reasoning to get one – to be like other ‘normal’ people – and many perhaps do not think about their own personal motivations or the long term consequences. But as the younger more-heavily-inked generation gets older, they will be the ones hiring and firing. Tattoos may become as commonplace as pierced ears or offices without ties.Social norms, by their nature, are not fixed – from body art and cosmetic surgery to views on gay marriage and sexual equality, all are in a state of flux and different audiences find themselves at a different angle to the prevailing social norm.Many of the campaigns and clients we work on are active and vocal on the changing landscapes of social norms, most notably recently with Girlguiding and their very public and refreshing embrace of feminism and our ongoing work with BAPRAS on the debates surrounding the ethics of cosmetic surgery advertising.The only sure thing about social norms is that they are subject to change, and the tensions, arguments and debates that take place around them create fascinating communications challenges.
