Do you know of any shirts with sleeves that go all the way to the fingertips?

Anyway, In the corporate world, you don't wear long sleeve shirts 24/7. Company parties during the Summer? Playing Golf with important people? All of these things come to mind for me[/color]

If it is a full sleeve tattoo and you are wearing a short sleeve shirt, you still going to see the tats though

Dude is talking about tats that end above the wrist like this:

[color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]I know what he was talking about, but I was giving my opinion onsleeves and the Corporate world. Obviously stopping a sleeve an inch above your wrist wouldn't be hidden if you're wearing a short sleeve

There are probably some free thinking people that wear jackets over their long or short sleeve shirts.

in the summertime too

Yup.....when it got super hot, it would have been nice to roll up my sleeves at work. PLus some corporate companies (as the one I work for) have casual dressattire during the summers, so you can wear polos and short sleeved collared shirts. It is small price to pay when you do have tattoos but after a while, youget used to it.

eh, I'm not gonna get sleeves until I can support myself, I.e. pay my own salary

cause I rock the sleeves rolled up more than anything

a 3rd grader saw the bottom of an upper arm tat I got and was loud as @+$* like "YOU HAVE A TATTOO?!?"

I always seem to answer peoples rhetorical questions, or questions I'm asked a lot with "unfortunately"

and then their teacher went into a 45 second rant on the mistake getting a tattoo is...

not that big of a deal, imo...

unless you getting your face tatted

Do you know of any shirts with sleeves that go all the way to the fingertips?

OP must have had a brain fart or something.

i'm talking about a inch above the wrist, not below....dumb %%*

They're called sleeves for a reason, smart guy.

you play much golf, fresco? or were you just spewing the same tired cliche from the 1960s?

I don't play golf

even if a boss invited me to play golf, I'd decline....we can chill in the clubhouse all day, I don't get down with the golfs....

I don't drink, but I'd drink with a boss

but golf? you gon rent clubs and get smashed?

apologies if you play regularly

I'm just sayin...

lol

dumb +%*! like this is why I hate the corporate world.

I worked in publishing..copy editor...out of "professionalism" these ***** had us in business attire..

we sat behind computers for 8 hrs a day and saw the same 5 people all day..

dress up for what?

I understand, take a shower, look nice, not frumpy, but good god...

+%*! was ******ed.

and don't get me started about biased reviews so they don't have to give you the contract-stipulated pay increase....lol

told me I take too many breaks...then...4 months later...gave me the increase I was supposed to have...and said "you take fewer breaks"

same amount of breaks.

eat a %%%#, corporate world.

yes, I'm blowed.

Who made these rules that tattoos and certain jewelry were unprofessional?

A lil too low. In todays society tho, tats are becoming the
Norm. Most of those big CEO's children probly have some
Type of tat or piercing. I can still see them using it to apply
A stereotype tho.

surprisingly nope.
old timers that are usually CEOs pass their old school ways to their children

... Do you really think that if they paid the cash to get 99% of their arm done, that other 1% is really hurting the pockets?

I would assume people do it for the work world..
Maybe they think it looks better??
Who knows...

Corporate world is a joke anyway.

Working for yourself, FTW!

The older generation probably. As they move on (no offense), I am sure things will change a little bit. But people having tattoos are kind of a norm now. Justdon't have tats on your hands, face, neck and for girls....feet/legs.

 

[mac a roni]

[color= rgb(102, 0, 153)]3 fingers from the wrist i feel is no tat zone....tryna get a huge tat on my inside forearm...[/color]

 

[tupac jordan]

For Japanese style tattoos some people leave the inner bicep unmarked because in the past tattooing was used as punishment for criminals. I don't know ifthey also tattooed near the wrist as punishment also but it's just a theory.

what the womp? how you going to tell me? My artist told me the price ranges between all the sizes. full sleeve could add up to be 100-200 more.

 

[Fong$tarr]

^^^^^I think is was implied as if you meant if a person had a sleeve and only got it up to that certain part of the wrist that doesn't show as much. Ithink you guys got both each other misunderstood.


And tats are all charged by the hour. So a sleeve can be more then other tats cause of the time spent on a person but it doesn't necessarily hold true allthe time. I heard portraits or more detailed work is way more expensive too cause....again, of the time. But it all depends on the artists. You can go to aportrait specialist and he can whip it faster then some other artists that are not necessarily good at doing it. Color can also be more expensive too......butyeah...you get what I mean.

 

[food4thgt]

I want one...

 

[itz rolli]

mine stops at the wrist.

 

[stixx]

I personally did it b/c I didn't want my watch to over lap my tat...
