What is the significance of a teardrop tattoo on the hand?
It can signify that the wearer has killed another person. A sign to others that, like a Mafia wiseguy who's "made his bones", he is someone to be taken seriously.
In the very early mideval times, the tear drop would usually be on the wrist, as a BIRTHMARK. The tear drop would really be a tear drop, it was actually a drop of blood. That meant they were healers, that they had special healing abilities. Now maybe you got confused with the tear drop/blood drop or it has another meaning.
Possible meanings:
They faced PHYSICAL hardships
They think it's cool
It shows how they feel on the outside
It means a certain meaning only known to THEM

You need to have a good understanding of intrapersonal barriers to have effective interpersonal communication because the former helps you understand how to effectively approach others. Knowing intrapersonal barriers may help you understand what the other person may be thinking or feeling, and how to most effectively convey your message in a way that won't be misunderstood.

Do you think tariffs protect American jobs and wages?
"Creating a competitive advantage for either foreign or domestic manufacturers violates the principles of United States trade agreements with other countries." [1]
Tariffs can be used to adjust the market price of goods manufactured outside of the United States to discourage the export of jobs to cheaper job markets, thus eliminating competitive advantages present in countries that lack the restrictions placed on United States manufacturers (e.g., minimum wage, workers' compensation insurance, unemployment insurance, etc.) until such a time as these restrictions are implemented.
Tariffs are but one of many diplomatic tools at the disposal of nations to ensure that no single nation gains a competitive advantage over any other nation also bound by the same trade agreements. The answer, in short, is that tariffs can protect American jobs and wages to the extent that they mitigate unfair advantages gained by developing nations with lower mean wages, but no further.

How do you introduce yourself to a girl who you have never met?
Walk up to her, introduce yourself, and if she seems like she wants to talk, start a conversation. Ask her about her and that should help a bit. Most girls love to talk, but not always about themselves, so she'll probably change the topic to something she finds interesting, and you two should hopefully be able to take it from there.
