    that sounds really dodgy. is it a operation scar?


  • Registered Users Posts: 285 ✭✭dannyo666


    Yeah it is an operation scar but its two years old now,its perfectly healed.I just need to cover it for two days.

    Surely you would get the job more if you just had a scar? I thought there was a bit of anti-tatoos feeling from prospective employers?

    TBH, it's a medical, why would a scar from old surgery look bad? Prospective employers tend to frown more on tattoos than a scar!

    Also, during a medical a doctor will see that it's a temporary tattoo and that there is a scar underneath.

    And, to be honest, the doctor probably won't care.

    i'd a medical recently, and it does have to be said, doctor completely missed the fact that i had two big scars covered up by mods. duno how to fake the mods though, man.

    Thanks for the replys,

    Its a military medical.They couldnt give a ****e about tattoos but a scar on your back is a complete no-no.The doctor will be giving me just a quick once over looking for deformities ie,scars etc.He will not recognise a fake/temp tattoo-no way.

    Cheers

    Good luck man!

    Really though, most of us could spot a fake/temp tattoo, nevermind a doctor who'll be seeing ya up close and personal like! Plus it wouldn't really cover a scar that well, as the skin is still there, the scar is still there, it's just differently coloured!

    Thanks el diablo,

    Thanks for everyones opinions.I have to do this regardless,bit nervous now after everyone opinions.My scar is just like a matchstick right in the middle of my lower spine.Its a bit purple.As i say i will be doing this because i have to so any ideas of where to get a temp tattoo or some sort of kit sent to me will be really appreciated.I have scoured the web and cannot find a thing.Please.

    Cheers

    failing that, just say twas a childhood injury or something. i've a fair few of those... heh, my bro's got a bald patch on his head where it had to be glued back together after i knocked him into the fireplace during a cushion fight when we were about 5.

    Not sure about that one, if he's a doctor he'll probably know that the scar isn't all that old just by looking at it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,196 ✭✭✭Crumble Froo


    oh yeah. well, a general accident/injury one was my initial train of thought... which brought me to childhood ones.

    Trying to cheat a military medical by the sounds of it, you can't fool a doctor. Even with a temp tattoo.
