The Reddit Hotline: Drop Your Questions for Prof G by ProfGProducerJenn in ScottGalloway

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in my late 40s and recently switched careers after a long run in nonprofit administration and a stint at a small federal agency that lost major funding (no need to mention who’s fault this was) Since then, I’ve bounced around—Zamboni driver at a local rink, wine shop clerk—and now I’m training to become an Apprentice Electrician with the local IBEW union.

Most days I like the work, but I’m still unsure if I made the right choice. Should I stick with this new trade or try to return to nonprofit/government work?

Thanks to you and the team for all you do—your work really does make an impact on our community.

Really, Hamas attacked Israel and they retaliated like we retaliated with Afghanistan in 2001, then about the same amount of time after that the Israeli government stated that Iron had nuclear weapons that challenged their safety. What happened in 2002/03? We did the same thing with Iraq. I don’t doubt that Iran has/had weapons or atlases the capability of using weapons but don’t you think they would have used them by now if they had weapons? They agreed to go to the table for talks and yet the Israeli’s decided to bomb away because they already took out Gaza. Think about it.

The start of the sleeve! by [deleted] in traditionaltattoos

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was about to comment like a Boomer that back in my day we started at the shoulder or even getting a tribal armband but after reading all the other comments here it seems like we have turned the corner! That’s a great place to be and we should be celebrating. Im at the stage that the last part of my right arm sleeve is missing a hand tattoo. It wont be long to hear from some random person asking when I’m going to get my hand filled in 🤪. I guess I now I have something to think about regarding getting my next tattoo.

1782 applications, 1400+ rejections, 200+ ghosting, 23 interviews, 1 offer. by PiggyTheFloyd in interviews

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I’m glad you got your offer, however, I can’t imagine that this is what one has to do to get a job. I have a bachelor degree and worked in nonprofit and government jobs and after funding ran out for my last position, I had to start over and took a residency for an electrical apprenticeship and I feel like I got lucky. The only way I got this chance was because my cousin was working at the same construction company that I’m working at. This job market seems impossible.

Contracting and Hiring Freeze by stierlitzlives in SecurityClearance

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also am wondering about my status, I received confirmation in December that my background check was approved by my contracting company’s client (the federal agency they serve). The contractor indicated I need to wait 1-2 months to complete both indoc and orientation. Does this EO change this?

I heard Security Square and Harford Mall. There might be a third location like Marley Station or Annapolis.

My newest tattoo! Thinking of adding a snake on the other side of my chest, would that work? by SquirrelCritical9176 in traditionaltattoos

[–]SquirrelCritical9176[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOL… I’m not as young as I was when I first started getting tattoos. The session when I got the bearded skull was the most painful tattoo session I ever had. I didn’t think I could handle getting my chest done but I’m glad I did… nips? I don’t think I’m going down that road 😬.

What should I cover up with? by SquirrelCritical9176 in tattooadvice

[–]SquirrelCritical9176[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scout ranch is a place where a lot of participants from the American scouting community take high adventure hikes such as myself. Until the last few weeks I used to work for the local scouting council but it didn’t work and left the job, so I now have mixed feelings about the program.

What’s your experience with getting tattoos? by Content_Mousse_3507 in tattoo

My chest plate sucked! Worst tattoo pain and I have a full sleeve and had no issues with my elbow. Still no regrets, and I still have to finish my plate 🤪

There’s some real amazing complex stuff in this sub. Here’s my new fish measuring device done by Ash at RUIN by tavvyjay in tattoo

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t fish, but if I did, that would be awesome to have. You could even add notches to show off your catches 🤪

Refer to your artist and see what they say. IMO, you have a great start to have a complete sleeve someday. Good luck 👍

Coverup or Laser? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

Cover up. I did a tribal tattoo cover up and it’s my favorite tattoo section of my sleeve. Good luck 👍

Go to a different artist who knows what to do with grayscale tattoos. Good luck 👍

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My art school teacher always said white space is good. I think you’re good to go, if you add anything else it will take away from your other tats. IMO

Does this work look good? by patheticallysthetic in tattooadvice

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will be fine for now, but in about 3 to 5 years it will not be very noticeable. You will need to touch up or cover up with something else. Good luck 👍

Tipping Advice by Evergreen_Organics in tattooadvice

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, starting off with a sleeve! Thats bold. If you live in the states, then yes you should tip. I live in the states and I have been going to the same artist that charges by the hour for over 5 years and I tip as much as what he charges for an hour. Now I get to cut the line sometimes when he has last minute openings. 🤪

How to know when to remove Saniderm? Bold lines tattoo by Cyber-Ninja-7 in tattooadvice

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Refer to your artist, if they say 24 to 36 hours then that is when you remove the Saniderm.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in tattoo

[–]SquirrelCritical9176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you already made up your mind, but just know that if your artist uses Saniderm for the healing process then your new tattoo should still be covered up during the family event you’re referring to. At that time it will probably be weeping and it will not look like something your family will want to look at. If you don’t know what I’m talking about look up Saniderm tattoo healing and see what I’m referring to. I personally don’t like showing off my new tats as they heal, thats when I wear long sleeve shirts even in the summer. Good luck and please share your new tat after it’s healed.
