If you get a tattoo and then have it removed, it is de facto a temporary tattoo like the ones you got from A-Team bubble gum packets or something, only it cost hundreds if not thousands to both make and remove.

Meredith Baxter-Burnout posted:The capitalism.png thing about tattoos is that lots of people literally pay money to permanently brand themselves with corporate brands. Pretty much this. I'm a chef and a punk rocker, and a way I generally tell how much of a poser they are by the extent of their tattoo's. Especially michelin chefs that I run into sometimes. It's just like, your loving mommy bought you those tattoos when you were taking a break from cooking school where you really only learned how to stick your nose up when someone's trying to look you in the eye. I loving hate servers, but I understand how they have the money to burn on tattoos. When a cook/chef is covered in tattoos? Unless they're getting stick and pokes or maybe have a friend with a tattoo gun, it's rubs me suspicious. Sometimes people ask me where my tattoos are when I say I'm into punk, and it's like, I got into punk because I like nonconformity and now it's conformity in some ways to get tattoos. Intelligence is obviously not linked to tattoos, but they're definitely status symbols that say "I had a few hundred dollars and a few hours to wait for art to be put on my arm." I don't have a few extra hundred dollars, and if I had the loving money to waste I'd travel across the country to visit my family that I miss, a lot. One of the 2-star michelin kitchens I've worked in (washing dishes for a temp agency, getting paid more per hour than the chefs) there was one chef who had a michelin star tattoo on the inside of his forearm. I forgot exactly how he phrased it, but I'm pretty sure he said something along the lines of me maybe wanting the autographs of the chefs there. This same shift, I was picking up some plates from where the servers drop them off, and I asked a server if he still needed a receipt that was on the plate. He said no, and as I was throwing it into the trash, I saw the bill was $3,000. I will never, ever forget that. Ever. I declined their offer to work on their line. Very nice chef, though. I wanted to ask her if she cares so much about the future, why are all the chefs in their kitchens serving the upper class? Why is there no general strike? Tattoos are this counter-cultural thing that has become mainstream. I remember back in the 90's, if someone had a *single* tattoo, people would be like "whoaaa, he has a tattooooo." Now, it's like, soccer moms have full sleeves and face tattoos and poo poo.

My problem with how compound interest is taught is how they don't make the connection between the compound rate and real-life production compounding. They just treat the compound rate as some artificial number that can be played with in contracts to deceive borrowers. For example I have $10 and instead of lending it I spend it on seeds to plant crops on 2% of my land. Then once I sell the crops I get $12, so at the moment I sold my crops would be the compound date for the loan I could have made with the $10. I could then buy more seeds with the $12, and then make $14.40 on my next crop sale, indicating another compound period.

Being so concerned about what people will or won't think about you and sneering at people who made a different choice than you is what makes you a conformist. There's also nothing punk about being a judgmental prick who is obsessed with how other people will judge you if you put one foot out of line. That poo poo is and always has been as mainstream as gently caress. You'd fit right in with the soccer mums gossiping about each other.

I don't care if someone has tattoos, I'm saying that in general they're loving posers. If someone has 3 tattoos (especially if they're done by friends like my previous post mentions), they're probably going through more of the struggle than someone who can afford to be covered in them. Sort of like you trying to tell me what's punk and not punk like I give a single gently caress about you or your decision to not post pictures in a picture thread. Marxist-Jezzinist posted:Chefs are pricks In general, yeah. I'm usually picking up everyone else's slack working multiple stations because people in this country are lazy as gently caress. It really gets loving hard telling someone the same loving thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and then you get asked "how do you this?" and the answer is "WITHOUT SPILLING poo poo EVERYWHERE!"

Meredith Baxter-Burnout posted:States that require unit pricing information on the shelf labels own. We have "price per (whole number weight/volume)" laws in Australia. I took a picture once of a packet of saffron that cost $13 for 100mg. On the label on the shelf it then had "$13,000/100g". Super useful information to know, that, if I'm ever in the market for a lifetime supply of saffron.

I work at a university owned catering company. Sometimes we have to get a chef in to cover evening shifts that are usually for boring old unglamorous assistants and every goddamn time we do I have to redo the boring stuff like cleaning and government mandated paperwork. Also they're never punk
