Are industrial piercings considered offensive?

[lovelyL]

My job say that all offensive facial and body piercings aren't allowed so I was curious if you'll think a bar in my ear is offensive?

[Arwens-Fire]

I don't see it as offensive but I think it depends what kind of job you are seeking.If your job thinks it's offensive then you may have to conform to their policy.But there are other jobs that appreciate your form of expression.

that's just their policy. doesn't matter what you think or what I think. and for the record, no I don't' find it offensive. but hey, they're paying you, so whatevers

[lovelyL]

All I was askin was is it considered to be an "offensive" piercing so I know to take it out or not

[cookiemonster12]

Not offensive, but they are considered unprofessional.

[lovelyL]

Its a warehouse so in my opinion they shouldn't care what piercings you have

[Elaine1]

No offensive to me. But to those serious guys, maybe yes.

[Caustic_Fox]

its only offensive if your already ugly and it brings attention to your face

[lovelyL]

Lmao! Well I have nothing to worry about!

[Caustic_Fox]

at this point in time tought it isn't considered appropriate for the work place, I'm sure that will change eventually thouhg

[lovelyL]

But its a warehouse not a customer service job I feel like that rule is irrelevant!

[Caustic_Fox]

it is, doesn't mean they won't make you follow it though

[lovelyL]

O yea I'm pretty sure they will I don't think industrial piercings are considered "offensive" tho

[Anonymous]

Well I don't think it's very classy for work, but it depends where you work.

Warehouse

[IHateMeganFox]

I have one and I have a job and no one at my job has said anything to me. But I took it out for right now because those balls of skin were forming on the holes.

[lovelyL]

You don't have anything to put on it?

[IHateMeganFox]

Well I heard tea tree oil takes care of it so I've been using that these past few days.

[lovelyL]

O ok.. I one on both my holes but I used a qtip to clean around the earring then I put some antiseptic on a clean qtip and cleaned the piercing it took about two to three days to go away but I no longer have that problem I hated that! Lol

[IHateMeganFox]

Hmmm it keeps occurring with me. What cleaner did you use?

[lovelyL]

It just says ear care I got it from a piercing place any antiseptic should work tho just use it daily mayb even twice a day until it goes away then just once a day or every other day will be fine. How long have you had it?

[IHateMeganFox]

I got it August of 2010.

[lovelyL]

O OK I've had mine since Oct 2010 it took about 18 months to heal

[IHateMeganFox]

Damn it seem so long ago doesn't it? But at the same time it doesn't.

[lovelyL]

Lol yeepp and I didn't mean 18 I meant 14 but good luck! Hope it gets better

[IHateMeganFox]

Thank you hope you figure out your job/piercing situation!
