Hey pendejo, my advice: Don't make you first tattoo be a hand (or face/neck/knuckles) tattoo.
Everyone tends to regret their first tattoo, it's just some sort of undeniable law of the tattoo world. Although there are exceptions. But THINK ABOUT IT TWICE/THRICE/FOUR TIMES.

i agree with maga... going totally visible for the first tattoo is not a good idea...
and i heard that if you do get a tattoo on your hands/neck and you are not already heavily covered... el cucuy will get you while you're sleeping...
just sayin...

I agree with this hot mama completley. Most tattoo artists that I know have a personal policy about not tattoing someone's hands unless they're generally covered. It seems like you're jumping in wholeheartedly, which is commendable, but maybe starting with something you can cover until you figure out if you want to live as a person with visable tattoos is a good idea.
.... as for the employment stuff, i'm not sure what it's like in the states, but here, it's getting more and more acceptable everyday. I still hear people complain about not being able to get a "good job" because they're tattooed, but I call bullshit on that one, as my dude has his throat tattooed and he works in finance. He's a banker. and no one says shit.
I think some employers definitly do still have a problem employing tattooed folks, but I feel that part of the responsibility of being a person with visable tattoos is to not let it stand in your way, imho.
annnnnnnd i'm done. 2c.
