interviewing for a new job

So got a question for you executive types...actually 2. So I got the job last Tuesday, a week ago. I'm waiting to find out a training date to start. Is it bad to shoot them an email asking if they have an idea when that will be?

Also I have quite a bit of tattoos...both arms sleeved and bunch others. They haven't seen them yet. My arms are all a customer would see, so do I keep them hidden, or let them know? Was thinking keeping them hidden for a while and see how goes. Any suggestions/ ideas?

Just be really professional and convey the feeling that your're motivated to start and "bring your skill to the table".

The "safe" bet is wear full sleeve shirts until the job is comfortable/happy with you then start picking occasional days (casual days).

There's no harm in playing it safe the first week and seeing how it feels.

And GRATS!

Yah since going to strangers to sell roofs gotta look professional. Thanks man

Keep the tats covered til you are established there. That's what I did and I just work with a bunch of tards.

Gotcha...I think I'll be stuck wearing company issued short sleeve shorts, so I was gonna go buy a bunch of white long sleeve shirts...glad never did my hands or neck
