If you see offensive comments, just let it go into one eye and let it out of the other eye, no tears and not sadness or anger.

Tattoo artist seems to be an emergent field for the aged skaters too. Think every tour van should have a tat gun so they can practice on each other. If you're going to get a Baker tat then what could be better than having it done by an og baker boy. There's definitely people that would pay a premium for that.

 What does Joey Valdez do now? Isnt he a hair stylist or something?

Tattooing is fucked you’d wanna get in to it real young
I don’t even know how this is legal but they put tattoo apprentices on no compete agreements so like you finish your four years and have to work for the prick for another five before you can start your own shop

Don’t they all end up working for their main sponsor as team manager or warehouse dude?

JT aultz did the best thing out of all the old pros who still work in the industry and works for bbs now . He sounds pretty hyped on making skateboards.

 Similar note I’m bummed davis torgerson bowed out to work at DLX so early. Its cool he didn’t want to just coast and have a board but I thought his new balance part in 2019 was a step towards an interesting lower impact, cool spot selection , tech torgy.

Damn I had no idea Davis Torgerson retired. That String Theory NB part was so good. Hope dude is doing well.

Is there a license or education requirement or something before you can start on your own? What stops this dude to do it himself after he has learned how it's done? I mean, besides money for all the shit you need.

It’s the esteem of being apprenticed by someone who is respected in the tattoo world.  There isn’t a well respected tattoo artist on earth that will do it for free especially if you become better than him and once he’s done can open a shop next door to you.  So why wouldn’t every respected tattoo artist have every apprentice sign a non compete?

Real estate agent?

Seems like that’s a popular choice. Is it really easy to become one?

In my area, the post office. If you can get a walking route your quality of life should be pretty good. I always wanted to be a mail carrier but my father told me they only higher vets. Now they are sending out job advertisements in the mail.
