Probably the one time I would recommend against it. A young VCU student isn’t going to recommend the boring old reliable stuff that a small business should have. They’ll end up with a custom coded website in rust with dev, stage, prod environments all infra as code, on AWS for just a restaurant menu…
“You want to edit your menu, just install MySQL workbench, connect to the VPN, …….”
My first IT job was at a hosting provider and I saw this too often. I was also the VCU student who would have thrown arch Linux on an old laptop and used it as your server because no need to pay evil corporations
An intern might be good for general maintenance of whatever ends up getting set up though.

TIL of such a thing called Burns Night.
"Burns Night is an annual celebration of Scotland’s most famous poet – a man called Robert Burns."

They probably aren’t that rare. It’s like a hellbender salamander. They are out there, but most of us don’t get the honor of meeting one.

careers@vcu.edu this is what I found on the internship for vcu. It might be worth just reaching out and seeing what they think. You might end up with someone interested in your field who is tech savvy. Or just someone in a computer field that can save you a bunch of time good luck.

Exactly! I’m not trying to get a discount, it’s just something fun to do!

I have a $13 Friday 13th tattoo next to my $600 tattoo. More of a talking piece/memento than a serious thing lol

It’s fun to do themed tattoos. Lots of people do fun flash pieces on Friday the 13th only. I’m trying to plan ahead this time. Thanks for your input!

If you're getting a discount tattoo it's....probably not worth getting at all.
edit: Alright I wasn't trying to be snobby about this. If you're going with a reputable artist at a solid shop I CAN see the appeal.

I never realized these were so rare! We had them in the attic in every house I lived in as a kid out in chesterfield. Spent alot of time trapping and relocating them

It hit me this afternoon. I was just going about my day and “NUTasha” popped into my head. I’m ashamed.

"Hothead" is way too kind. You're a special kind of stupid when you see someone writing you a parking ticket and decide pulling a gun and attempting to murder them is the solution. People whose brains are this broken need to be institutionalized.
