For me, turning the big 4-0 comes with its share of introspection.
But today's episode is rather the other side of the moon (or the coin) of last week's episode, "Ep. 65: A Few, Namely Five, Reasons I Love Being A Tattoo Artist".
Today I tell you five reasons being a self employed tattoo artist can be challenging. I'd say these are the most annoying things about it for me.
In short...
1. Charging people money!
2. email and consults at that awkward time, before the client and I develop trust.
3. not being able to read the client's mind
4. no logistical safety net, no PTO etc
5. taxes
but first... Lulu becomes the unexpected essence of opulence, thanks to a serendipitous perfume spill.
Enjoy!
