TALKING POINTS
What is your view on tattoos?

I have believed for many years that a water safety staff members should have no tattoos that are visible outside normal uniform. Recently, some members of my dept. got [more visible] tattoos.

Interestingly, the overwhelming message is that other aquatic facilities are a lot 'looser' with their tattoo policy. So, we've updated and adapted ours.
