A teenage father with a tattoo covering half his face saying DEVAST8 has cried out over his struggle to get a job.
19 year old Mark Cropp, who was recently released from prison, put a plea out on Facebook saying his facial tattoo was stopping him securing employment.
He also said his tattoo which is not gang affiliated- wasn't planned and was not supposed to be quite as big.
He got it a number of months ago while in prison serving a two year and three month sentence in the Otago Correction Facility for aggravated robbery, the NZ Herald reports.
Cropp said he was going through a 'rough patch' with people trying to bully him at the time and believed people were more cautious around those with tattoos in prison.
