*Ahem...*
Firstly, AIDS and Hepatitis C can only be caught from unsterilized environments, such as the more commercial tattooists where many people pass through every day... secondly... when has anyone gone to a job interview with shorts and t-shirts???
You ALWAYS wear a suit to an interview, covering your tattoo (unless you have them on your hands or face). In this day and age almost everyone has a tattoo, and a tattoo does not restrict you in an interview even if it is showing... it's your CV that counts... well in my experience!
Thirdly, it's true that everything caries a risk... but it is your OWN FAULT if you do not investigate the place where they will dye your skin for the rest or your natural life. Some fairly poor tattooists do not use the 100% pure Indian drawing ink... they use PRINTER INK AND CAR PAINT!!! INVESTIGATE!!!
