Young woman, 23, claims TJ Maxx denied her a job because of her ‘demonic and scary’ tattoos..😱

Ash Putnam, 23, went viral on TikTok after being rejected for a job at TJ Maxx. She speculated her tattoos played a role, despite the store attributing it to a lack of experience. The video garnered over seven million views, with commenters divided on whether tattoos affect hiring decisions.

Frustrated, Putnam confronted TJ Maxx employees, asking why she wasn’t hired. They cited more experienced candidates, but Putnam doubted the explanation. She shared, “Just because I have tattoos does not mean I am not going to be a good worker.” Many TikTok users echoed her suspicion, with comments like, “It’s probably the tattoos” and “They wouldn’t put you in front of customers.”

Putnam, who works for Uber Eats, admitted, “I absolutely do think it’s about my tattoos,” noting some find them “demonic and scary.”

Putnam argues tattoos reflect individuality, saying, “It’s 2024… tattoos, piercings, and colored hair are not unprofessional.” Her story raises questions about bias in hiring. What’s your take? Share your thoughts on Facebook!
