For me personally, it can be distracting. Even painted fingernails bother me, especially if I'm in a long meeting or trying to really focus on what is being said. I think it also depends on where you want to work. If you want to work in a large city, there's more flexibility with tattoos because larger cities are generally more "open-minded." But if you plan to work in a small town like where I'm orginially from (it's more "closed-minded") then it actually could adversely affect you. I love tattoos and I want one sooooo bad (but way tooooo chicken of needles) so I don't blame you for wanting one. I guess I have to agree with the others who said as long as you can cover it up during the more "serious" interpreting assignments, you should be fine.
