But an interview can't actually do that, at least to the necessary degree. More time needs to spent for them to give you a job over someone else.
That was my thought too.I'm astonished there are mechanics without tattoos
I would have to agree here. Not that I have anything against Tattoos but it just doesn't wash in a Porsche garage imo. Unfortunately that's the society we live in.
I don't know abouit you but I only "see" female ones.
Well there is quite a bit of variation even in just the female ones

She's in another type of motor trade but - scraps the cars by sitting on them !
his manager is no doubt old school and thinks that its just old eccentrics who buy porsches
when infact it is people like david beckham or young professionals who actually couldnt give a damn about wether someone has tattoos or not. i dont even think my mum would give a damn about the mechanic having tattoos and she hates them

Why do so many people in this thread completely miss the point?
Society thinks like this. Yes, its wrong, but it thinks like it, therefore some people choose to tailor business to suit the perceptions of the majority of customers.
Sounds like a perfectly reasonable point to make. After all tattoos just make him look like he's been in prison, so I wouldn't want him touching my £80k car if I had one.
*opens can of worms*
That is how people think, and I think its reasonable to be expected if he does have tattoos all over his arms.

They could but you're such a minority it would bankrupt them, so they wont.
That might be a reasonable deduction, yes.
But if you are in the business of selling products and services to snobby *****'s, then you tailor your offering to that demographics wants and needs.
Some are and some aren’t.

Not really. It's stereotyping, sure, and that's inductive, but stereotyping often pays dividends.
People stereotype, that's life.

If he doesn't like his employers policy he could simply leave.
