Israeli/Jewish tattoo artists in LA?

To be clear... it's more about the familiarity with Hebrew as a language than it is the religion or background of the artist, hence why an Israeli would prolly be best.

Thanks everybody. The tattoo is actually in Yiddish and I have a friend at the Yiddish Book Center who's proofed it twice (even got confirmation from real life yiddish speakers) so I'm definitely doing my due diligence.

I do not want to end up here: www.badhebrew.com

And yeah I've looked at Campbell, Baxter and Zilber too. Thanks guys!

Clean illustrations of the Golem of Prague?

I've looked at so much stuff. I love those but I'm looking for something super simple: no shading really. It's going to be on the smaller side. Basically closer to vector art than actual art. I may have to reach out to some graphic design friends.

Ultimately, I'm looking for something that's closer to the male/female sign for bathrooms. But these are all very cool answers. Thank you!

Ha! The Czech beer ones are super close to what I was thinking. I pass this along to my artist. Thanks!

Where can I learn about CIA safe houses?

Haha, I'm not so naive. I didn't mean to choose that word. Preferably, I'd like non-fiction stuff but fiction stuff is good too. Thank you!

I went there all the time when I lived in the area growing up (seriously, I loved that damn museum). But I'll go ahead and email them and check out the site. Thanks!

I've done wrong and I need to make it right

Tell him. It's up to him what he does with that information but it's insulting to him think you're protecting him by not disclosing it. He's an adult, he'll do what he has to do once given that information but he should know.

Holding AT&T authorized retailer accountable for terrible service?

Did you buy the phone under the table knowingly or were you mislead into believing it was a legitimate transaction?

What an I negotiate for in my new job?

That's always kind of sketchy: if you're working full time, at their facilities, and under their direction, you're really not a 1099 contractor.

Yeah, I know, I know, I've done it before, it's in an industry where this happens occasionally. I don't love it but it's a hell of a lot better than what I have now.

Your negotiation stance should be that whatever your salary was going to be as a salaried employee, it should be 50 to 60 percent higher as a contractor, with actual overtime whenever you work over 40 hours a week.

It's a small company (11-13) people, I'm not sure how feasible 50 to 60 percent is. But can you tell me how I would justify asking for something like this? I don't think I have the words. What do I say?

I can't walk away. I already quit my other job. I'm dumb. I know. I was making minimum wage before this.

I already accepted the job... Aren't I negotiating from a position of weakness? What if they tell me to fuck off?
posted to Ask MetaFilter by You Guys Like 2 Party? at 5:04 PM on October 9, 2012

Sooooooooooo... After I called them earlier and told them simply that being a contractor means I'd be making less money than we agreed about... they just called me back and offered me a job as a full time employee. I didn't ask for 50% more because honestly... I'm a young guy and this is more or less an entry-level position, but for real, Metafilter, you helped me out so much. Thank you guys. It's all good. We won.

Please give me some Dr. recommendations for LA

Ooof. I have some bad news, you are most likely not going to find good doctors (or that many) really in Los Feliz/Silverlake/Echo Park. It's a small area and a relatively low income one, so unfortunately, there's a real dearth of good doctors or just doctors in general. You can check some of the Yelp reviews for doctors in Los Feliz, from what I recall the few that are there receive very low marks.

To be honest you might have to widen your net to… [more]

How hard is it for an American to move to England/Scotland/Wales?

Nope. Jew on one side, very very long ago English on the other.

Where to find secluded, lakeside camping near Los Angeles?

Wow, Death Valley sounds awesome. How far off the beaten path would I have to go? I have a sedan car, would that work okay? Are there maps I can look at?
