Just got back about an hour ago from my "interview" and I was hired on the spot. I'll be doing what I love - art. Specifically, putting it permanently on people's skin. The two guys i'm working with (owner/shop manager) seem really cool; we hit it off right away. A Leo and a Virgo. I have to apprentice for a certain amount of time first, of course - since i've never done one, but that's cool. A lot of people applied for this and I'm super lucky to have gotten it. woot! bbzzzzzzzztt! IP: Logged |

Wow, thank you ladies!!! We are under construction and today the three of us got supplies & got to work painting etc. Okay, well, they did most of the painting while I worked on artwork that will border the mirror. Leo and I are the artists. Virgo is the business man/owner who owns the shop next door too (expanding with this tattoo shop). Will update you with pics of our progression as we go. Going back in in in the morning even though I dont have to and it's a holiday; i want to. Somehow I already know I'm going to love what I do - for once!!! Thanks for the well wishes. IP: Logged |

MVM & AG Thanks. MVM, yeah, i have one horribly done one I got when i was younger that i cant wait to cover up. The reason I havent yet is because it's expensive!Cardinal, yes it's pretty cool! & yeah, they were looking for an apprentice and have two other positions that havent been filled yet. Legally you have to apprentice for a certain amount of time first. Thanks! IP: Logged |
