I'm guessing that the tattoo isn't his only impediment to gainful employment.
Moral of story: Make sure you have a secure skill or source of income before you get a controversial visible tattoo. A lot of chefs, bartenders, and self-employed creative types have visible tattoos but don't go looking for a sales job with them.
