I have to agree with you Gene... I have also been in the food and beverage industry as well as tanning. Asking someone to sell tanning and tanning products who does not tan is like having a vegan server at a high class steak restaurant. The salesman is only as good as their product knowledge!

I wont buy a specialized product from someone who doesnt or wont use the product themselves. I wouldnt buy a diet pill from a 400 pound salesperson. Obviously I dont want leather skinned employees, however I want them to be glowing examples of what my customers can look like.

You can't force your employees to tan, that's just silly. Most employees will take advantage of the free tanning, and if not, they probably don't want to be working in a tanning salon.

Quote:AlohaTanCa:#1 requirment MUST LOVE TO TAN....but as a requirment there may be legal issue...5 years later he or she gets cancer WHY...you made him or her tan..no thank you......

This statment is not even WISE in a CYA type of thought process!!

If you don't understand and train your staff on the HOW's and WHY's of skin cancer then you should not be in the industry....

I would never hire a non-tanner or anyone that does not have the intelligence to absorb the FACTS about overexposures and underexposures.... even my bed cleaners have to be able to REBUT any ATTACK at school, home where ever ~ following our Salon Policies of Common Sense Use of UVR.

They can neither 'over do it' or 'under do it' to work here.... I HATE going into the competition and seeing the front desk chicks with the 'Dipped in Chocolate' look... there is nothing more unattractive imho.

A guy squirting coke into a bottle that does not drink coke is no problem.... but a sales person selling coke darned well better eat, sleep, drink and pee it. Same Same for Indoor Tanning.

I think that would be discrimination. But I don't really think you can force them to tan, but probably just hire people who do tan. I mean I'm sure Hooters states they'd hire fat girls, but in actuality I've never seen one.

I have a similar problem. My employees all tan but one is very pale an just can't seem to get much color. I told her to use a bronzer but she complains that it streaks...so I told her to try a bronzer on her legs first ...any ideas or thoughts on this one???

Dearest MJ,
I am not sure what a distie is, but from the "tone" of your response it appears to me that it was a mean dig. My sympathies to you. I am new here, not a spammer, I dislike SPAM and rude people. I love to assist people and was so excited to find this site; purely by accident I might add. If you happen to start getting SPAM related to Cinnamon Bay, I assure you I had nothing to do with it. Thank you for the extra attention, and again, I am sorry to hear such negativity from someone. I hope things get better for you and you feel better about yourself soon. I am not here to bicker or play immature games. I simply want to clear up your misinformation ~ Pam

My original response was deleted..why?????
I do not know. The second evil was my response to brat like mods who made the final decision to censor me.

I remember to save that one.
Quote:I see censorship is still very much alive and well here. WHAT I SAID I HAD EVERY RIGHT TO SAY. Now no need to get your pals to warn me to death Cya! Until the coward that edited me can be seen...and states their reasons....I will not bother to visit here.

That was a clean post.... no ****, ***, *******, skrew, *****, tramp, ****, words were used. If words like 'disdain' and 'remedial' are comsidered "bad here. Then, Fhuck you people! In the future I will just reply (if at all) on Tanformation.com where the mods from CesorshipRus.com cannot evil eye my OPINION. Especially when this person called me out to play.

You guys can go back to watching grass grow or paint dry.
I will post a board free of anal retentive closed minded simpltons in charge of what is said or not said. Does it agree with the banners advertisers? Or will on a board where they cater to whining posters that bring the shiiit on themselves..and can't take it when you smack them back. I am getting really tired of cutting and pasting all my posts into word because certain people think the evil eye is their you play toy.
Buh Bye now.




PS I saved this post to..I guess censorship is alive and well here even without the brat. :eyeroll:
