yeah, most jobs are all about 'presentation'
so idf there on your hands, to lower arms and cant be covered by the uniform then that might be a problem.
theres lots of things you can do to hide it though.

Like someone previously said, it will affect you in anything that is a white collar job (basically anything in the office) so I would get it in a place that can easily be covered up...
