I work with children, in a school run by the council. I have worked with children for 14 years and i'm qualified in what i do. I love what i do and i'm good at what i do too. What pisses me off is........the dress code! You're not allowed to wear something that would show cleavage - understandable, something too short - understandable, blue denim - apparently its not 'smart' and no vest tops. Other than that, people can wear what they want, apart from me! You see, i have tattoos and i'm not allowed to show them! I have to keep them covered up. Does having my tattoos on show suddenly mean i'm shit at my job, that i'm a bad person, what does it matter if i have tattoos. They're not offensive. I could understand if they were, but they're not. So in this weather, when its really hot, i'm having to wear cardigans or long sleeved tops so that i keep them covered, i'm having to wear trousers instead of a skirt or shorts. This really pisses me off. Surely its ok, even good, for children to see all types of people around them in a setting, because thats what they're going to see out in the streets, around the shops etc.
