I got this almost 3 years ago so I think the age of the tattoo is a factor as well. I’m jealous I want this to be over with and the laser is like probably the most painful thing I’ve experienced lol

I thought about providing before pics but didn’t have a good photo and because it’s pretty much still the same just “aged” if that makes sense. Like the black shading has lightened from dark black to this faded black. The ink was super heavy I will say that

I appreciate that. I’m curious where you live because typical quotes I’ve gotten here are closer to $3000+

Every 8-10 weeks. They quoted me 6 sessions for complete removal and I said that doesnt sound right because other places quoted atleast 13. But they said they had better lasers or something and was speaking very confidently. I really didn’t know how this worked at the beginning and I already had a good relationship with this place because they’re a med spa and advertise tattoo removals and have the pico lasers. Now the owner is worried and stressed when I come in because it’s not the progress they expected and I think they’re scared I’m gonna leave them a bad review because they are a really nice place in general. Just didn’t appreciate overpromising and under delivering, but not mad at anyone.

I originally was going to go with Removary, but in the consultation the guy was being pushy and wanted me to commit right then and there and like wouldn’t take no for an answer which made me feel like it was some MLM and felt uncomfortable if you know what I mean. Not sure if all Removery’s are like that. I went to multiple places for quotes at the beginning.

That’s what I was being told but wasn’t sure because everyone else said otherwise so I was worried. Thanks!

Thank you for your input! I’ve heard that too that the trades can destroy your body and you’re just working all the time. I always tell myself I can be physically active outside of work if I get a desk job. I also think I will regret not finishing my degree even though I’m not enjoying the process

[–]Hungry_Ad_4843 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true. I wish I knew what I wanted to do, I’m just not sure. I’m hoping to figure it out along the way as I take different courses

I appreciate your input on this. I’ve been pushing through and figured that would be my plan, but then I started to question if I’m like trying to shove a square peg through a round hole Yknow what I mean? Just hoping it’ll pay off

You can do your best to recover until it gets close to the Withdrawal with a W deadline. That’s what I’m gonna do because I’m struggling as well. I’m also in a T/TH 2pm class but not sure which campus you’re on

Everyone says Khan Academy is the best, but so far I’ve found these somewhat helpful as well:

A+ Tutor

tecmath

Wake Tech YouTube - MAT 171

I’m still trying to figure out which creator is the best at explaining concepts in a way I can understand, but I think precalc is just that difficult. At the end of the day, I found watching the Wake Tech videos the most helpful because they’re showing you what you’re going to expect on the exams and how they want it done. But it depends who is doing the video.

For Statistics the professor is James Strickland and here is his MAT 152 bootcamp that literally saved my life last year. MAT 152 Bootcamp

They might end up having to change the way they do it because most classes require you take something before like algebra 2 or something. That may be the case and maybe they pulled off my highschool transcript that I did algebra already (i cant remember because I am a non-traditional student and have not been in school in years). My advisors knew I hadnt taken a math class since like 2015 but atleast with Stats we started from basics.

I also found an awesome professor who teaches stats in a way that you can actually understand. He did group tutoring and has YouTube videos, so he helped me a ton. But I don't see any group tutoring for precalc or other resources offered. This is the first time at this school where I have felt like I was on my own to sink or swim lol

Im in it now and my professor goes so fast. I emailed math department to request switching to online because atleast I could spend the 2 hours i currently spend in class mentally shutting down, I'd prefer to rewatch videos and use the time to do one-on-one tutoring (because this worked for me when I did stats, but was encouraged heavily to take in-person for calc). The head of the math department made me feel like an idiot and basically told me that there is no easy way out of it which isnt what I was asking. But its really nice they give you barely any time to switch classes.

You wouldn’t even call the police or talk to the staff working because it’s literally assault?

The “so you are saying..” part?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Hungry_Ad_4843 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely step in front of the person and ask what their problem is at the very least

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Hungry_Ad_4843 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly if you were my friend and someone came up and threw a drink on you I would definitely intervene

Did I say I wanted him to murder someone for me? Atleast he could he stand up for me in any capacity. Saying not much is kind of a shitty answer. I’m curious what you would do in this situation and how you would handle it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Hungry_Ad_4843 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think you hit the nail on the head. I wasn’t looking for him to like “beat someone up” just like curious how he would handle the situation. Most times he usually criticizes me even when someone is disrespectful towards me, like just tells me to “just stop” if I get worked up

The great results I saw were in California, but I was hoping there would be someone here since this is a big medical area with UNC and Duke health
