She’s failed to ink a job deal.
NYP: A woman with 800 tattoos says she’s struggling to find gainful employment because bosses cast judgment on her inked-up appearance.
Melissa Sloan, 46, who hails from Wales in the United Kingdom, previously had a job cleaning toilets but says she hasn’t been able to find a similar gig because of the art that adorns her face and body.
“I can’t get a job,” Sloan bluntly told the Daily Star. “I applied for a job cleaning toilets where I live, and they won’t have me because of my tattoos.
“People have said I have never had a job in my life, but I have had one once and it didn’t last long,” the mother-of-two added. “If someone offered me a job tomorrow, I would go and work – I would take that offer.”
Sloan first started getting tattoos at the age of 20 and quickly became hooked. more
Hello actions, meet consequences. And may I suggest a good therapist?
Here’s a job – telephone customer service rep. Nobody needs to see that horrible face.
Can she do worse than a BOT?
And she has three children?! Poor kids.
These are the same women who wear short with writing across their rear ends then get mad if they see someone looking at them
I’m proudly a “boomer”. I love it when some young punks see pictures of our generation when we were young and make fun of our clothes or our hair. I always tell them: “Well, as you can see, we were able to change our hair styles and our clothes. You, unfortunately, will look like a tattooed circus freak for the rest of your life.”

Can’t believe any male would screw that thing 3 times. Why not identify as an African, no one will notice anything strange about you. Maybe some botox to the lips would be a boom.
She seems nice.
Has she try the circus?

There’s a lot these young ones are learning. For most of them it’s too late. They screwed themselves up to be popular. I told my 2 kids when they were teenagers, that their teen years won’t last long, none of what your friends at school are doing will matter after you’ve graduated. My kids are hitting 50, they have jobs, homes, cars, neither are tatted. They listened to Mom. Not many children nowadays have direction, not even grandparents are equipped with the ability to train their grandchildren. I have a friend taking care of 4 grandchildren. Worse person to hand them over to. The cycle is being repeated.
I once asked a group of kids 18-21 who all had tattoos and facial piercings what the deal was with them. They said it was alternative lifestyle. I replied, “Nope. You all look the same. Look at me. I don’t have any tattoos or piercings. I’m the alternative one.”
When instructions were in English, tattoos were in prison, and queers were in the closet.
while there aren’t a lot of circuses around now-a-day, she could get a job in one of them, in their ‘freak show’
how does she pay for her tatoos and also three kids, if she has only ever had a what sounds like one job, and she “had one once and it didn’t last long”?
whatever happened to disappearing ink?
did it disappear?
if she used it, she would have disappeared by now
If she had put the money she spends on tattoos in the bank she wouldn’t be so desperate for a job.
Also she would be one less stupid person to read about though I doubt I would notice her absence.
Her name wasn’t Lydia by any chance, was it? Oh Lydia, oh Lydia the tattooed lady. 800 tattoos that’s an awful lot of tramp stamps.
Hey Dumbshit! Shoulda thot about that before transforming yerself into something that looks like a mistake that just crawled out of a test tube!
She’s (?) gotta face for radio, but does she (?) have the talent?
I’ll go out on a limb and guess NOT.
I got one tattoo back 1966 while in the Marine Corp. Thankfully only one. It is high enough on my arm that it cannot be seen when I am wearing a short sleeve shirt. Again Thankfully.
Not my monkey, not my circus!
How can they trust you to clean toilets if you look worse than one.
It’s not a “snap” judgment of the kind you make too fast. It’s simply that taking everything relevant into consideration when making an employment decision about someone such as she doesn’t take but a fraction of a second, even for a cognitively impaired person.
It must not have been a problem when she only had 750 tattoos.
Side show act might go for her, if she had green and orange hair and eye ball tats.
I was never drunk enough or stupid enough to get a tattoo when I was in the Navy. I had a friend in my squadron who had tattoos and had to have them removed in a very painful procedure. He found that he was better off never having been tattooed.

Since she admittedly has never worked much this has been presumably paid for with welfare. She has managed to use at least $10k of tax dollars to destroy herself and ensure she never works again and stays on the dole. What the WEF would call a useless eater.
Mom said, “Sell it to the circus, what the heck.”
Dad said, “Nope, this one’s a pencil neck.
The first tattoo anybody should get is one across the forehead saying

And what a Democrat would call a locked-in voter.
Finding a Circus that needs a tattooed lady is certainly a bitch these days…
Uncle AL,
Abbreviated as “KNOW REGERTS”
One last observation: If she didn’t know before she started tattooing her face that the reaction of most people around her would be profound disapproval and rejection, then she’s too stupid to be classified as human.
The average cost of a tattoo that takes about 3 hrs to do is $600.
She has close to half a million dollars in tattoos on her body.
I don’t think she’s the sharpest tool in the shed.
People are trying to do her a favor by not employing her. Man, she’s ungrateful.
No need to waste more money on this garbage.
Her nickname is doodles.
I saw the tattooed lady at the Circus Sideshow once long before I saw them on the street.
All of a sudden I recalled the Ray Bradbury book ILLUSTRATED MAN.
Although I wonder how much of our tax dollars went into that “ink”?
Three kids? I’ll bet they’re triplets, I can’t imagine anyone tapping that more than once!
When you let your freak flag fly, don’t be surprised when people notice it.
mortem tyrannis
izlamo delenda est …
see, she’s an “addict” and it ain’t her fault …
what a crock of bullshit.
Never get a tattoo where a judge can see it from the bench
I thought the purpose of 800 tattoos was to be unemployable.
Da plane!
Da plane!
How do you afford 800 tattoos without a job?
…outside of prison, anyway…
EBT cards accepted… or somekind of govt relief.
Setting her sites a little low?
Cleaning toilets?
Pretty sure she didn’t grow up thinking that’s what she wanted to be doing.
Somehow I don’t think we aren’t getting the rest of the story?

The sperm donor had tats. One on each arm of a naked lady. One standing in a provocative pose and the other sitting in a martini glass. I was humiliated as a kid looking at them. I never invited friends over to the house because of his tats. So, even though they were on his arm, it has affected me to this day. I hate them!!!!
Best girlfriend ever: Fat tattooed woman. Heat in the winter, shade in the summer and moving pictures all year ’round. Keep that one on the down low the boys’ll make fun.
Regarding the father(s) of her three kids: blind guys get horny, too.
Get completely covered and go blackface. You’ll get a job then.
800 tattoos?
Shoulda got a few sponsors…
My brother James, a US Marine, got a tat while in Nam. Later found out he was allergenic to two of the inks used in it and had troubles for years with it. But not as much trouble as the shrapnel hole through his neck and out his shoulder that required his vocal cords to be repaired and an arm that never worked right after the strike. We both got honorable mention from our duty.
