Surprising

I'm surprised that no one mentioned in this thread that AAMT and AHDI was/are heavily involved in offshoring and the training/certification of offshore MTs.  IMHO, the conclusion to draw from this is that AAMT/AHDI is not particularly concerned with USA MTs gaining professional pay or, at the very least, it is not a concern/effort that you will find on their priority list.

Why is that so surprising? If the service SM
is $100, $20 is really 20% (a normal tip). 
It's surprising how many places are paying 6-8 cpl
even though I know some people make more, cpl is dropping in MT, not rising. If you are not a fast typist, may want to consider doing something else.
More surprising is what the parents are letting them do. sm

My daughter is in 6th grade.  There is a girl in her class who is ELEVEN years old.  Now keep the age in mind for a minute here.


This 11-year-old girl has piercings in one eyebrow, one side of her nose, her bottom lip, her tongue AND her belly button.  Both ears are also pierced all the way around with about 12 studs in each ear.  She wears full makeup and tight, low slung jeans. She told my daughter that she is getting a tattoo for her 13th birthday.


Sort of a "teenage right of passage" so to speak?  After all her parents have pretty much run out of things to give her permission to do.


I've met the "parents" and it's obvious that the apple doesn't fall to far from the tree.


Shall I suggest a uvula piercing for her big 13th?


I guess ya'll missed the point, but not surprising
I asked for opinions only of people who had SEEN the movie, oh well. I saw it and found it very sad, sad that people are condemned for who they love!!!
