So the HEALTH INSPECTOR is making rounds lately. For reference I got nothing to hide, I'm not worried. But another tattoo artist pulled up on the shop popping the curb and came in, telling us the city health inspector was making their rounds to shops. CUE PANIC. Most of the younger generation artists aren't freaked out, but some of the older generation artists were locking up their stuff. I have all my paperwork and I do all my forms so I'm fine lol

I got texted by a friend at another shop that some shops local to her were getting hella fined because they were forgetting to put down the lot number for their inks -- which has never been necessary before. Weird! I'm going to unfortunately start doing that, which is just more paperwork for me to do. At least I won't get fined.

This weekend I'm going to a benefit for a friend and his dog who were attacked by an offleash dog, an unfortunate problem of our city. It's also May Day! I'm making oat cakes and I'm gonna repot some plants. It's pretty boring honestly but that's fine, I'm lazy after moving and just want to sleep all the time. I'm also planning out my birthday trip, which will be to Chicago. I'm so excited.

I'm glad you didn't have to panic! Good luck at the fundraiser, I hope you make oodles of money for the poor puppy.

We went in today and specifically went through our inks. My boss lost 27 vials of ink (around 15-25 bux each), my other coworker lost like 15... The ink supplier sent us late-in-life vials and they must have expired under our noses. Good thing we looked.

Wow, you're lucky! But to be out all that money, I'd talk to my supplier if I were y'all.

That's the thing, a bunch of those inks were bought on sale. On sale ones are nearing their expiration date and sadly can't be finished off before they're toast. It sucks but that's the thing about sale inks!

Well, crud. I guess it's like getting bargain milk, you have to keep your eye on it to see if it expires.

Hey, Happy Birthdayyy! :D
