They may not be Anime posters-level odd, but this is certainly one of the weirdest motivational strategies we've heard of: a local realtor has promised employees bonuses if they just get the company logo tattooed on them. No doubt inspired by the incredible productivity of Billy the Human Billboard, Brooklyn-based Rapid Realty NYC is giving employers who get inked a 15 percent pay raise. “I think it’s a good opportunity to show commitment to a company that makes going to work fun every day,” Robert Trezza, who is the 40th employee to get the tattoo, told CBS.
After looking through some of the most nightmarish tattoos we've ever seen earlier today, Rapid Realty's plan doesn't seem so absurd to us right now (even if it does get us one step closer to real life Idiocracy). People get so many lousy tattoos of cliched aphorisms on their shoulder blade or Giants players on their butts, why not make some money off of it? Of course, we might not be thrilled to still have the tat if we left the company, but it's getting easier and easier to remove those Google tramp stamps these days. So would you get your company inscribed on your body?
