I work in the legal field (for a municipality) which is very conservative and I enjoy shaking 'em up a little -- even grossing them out, if that's how they have to react. Seeing younger people with imaginative piercings does not bother me a bit. In fact, one of my co-workers in another of our City departments has a LOT of piercings b/c he also has a band. I guess he's young enough to be my son! But he thinks I'm pretty cool. My husband is not too keen on all this, but too bad. I do love jewelry and navel, ear and nose piercings give me lots of additional places to display. So, no, seeing piercings on younger folks in the workplace doesn't offend me in the slightest.
