Good thing that we are not hiring for the chief financial officer position at a fortune 500 company. Imagine how long this thread would be then.

I finally put a test together, its 10 pages of the most common problems that come up
the need for eye protection,
what to tell a first-time tanner
how often can you tan
judging skin type
pressure points
tanning rashes
common medications that cause problems tanning
problems with contact lenses
2 beginning lotions
favorite bronzer
best high end lotion
how skin tans
what to do when a client burns
which client should avoid tiungle lotions
benifits of tanning
what is sunlight affective disorder
questions on light
its really everything that all the employees are screwing up...
then they give the owners and the manager a tour of the salon
a first time tour of mystic tan
they open the salon at least 3 times (with another employee overseeing them)
they close the salon 3-5 times (again w/ help)

pass it -a $1.00 raise

get certified -get another 1.00 -no further raise untill you go thru the busy season and i am working on the next level test...

Testing motivates the employees/ I am also considering retesting everyone when they come back in the fall- just to keep them on their toes!

I also add a note to paychecks when i notice that problems are reoccuring -ie "customers are tanning in friends accounts", ask for birthdate, or id checks"

hope this helps

DWHITE...Problem is, you have never had someone challenge you so as a result you are unbeaten. Therefore, I am here to beat you!

I realize selling $30 worth of Goo per day is a big jump for you. When you get to the $45 mark let me know! hahaha
Second, you and gary are two peas in a pod...Just admit when you are wrong and life will be much easier...

Hey SunSally, you forgot about the MBA w/ undergrad in Org. Management (minor in Human Resources) Reading Gary's post, I was having flashbacks to my Quantitative Methods and Statistics classes. Once you've gotten a taste for the correct methods of doing statistical analysis and writing unbaised questionnaires, you get a bitter taste for most "facts" you hear on TV and 99.99% of the "polls".

I think I posted this once before, but about two weeks ago I woke up the entire house when I laughed so hard and abruptly at the 11 PM news. The "reporter" was doing a piece on a local car club that was testing the EPA ratings on Hybrid cars.

She reported, "They weren't able to verify or meet the EPA ratings, because only half the people got above the average rating. The rest got less MPG."

Why do so many people pop in from nowhere to bash people here?? *SCRATCHING HEAD* I think we need a mod system similar to slashdot http://www.slashdot.org If you post crap, we mod your karma points down. Then I can set my thresholds to only see authors that post information of value (or humor), and if I have A LOT of time on my hands, I can lower it to see everything.

Dana,

I don't think you stand a chance against Mike B. Mike - great hire, GS is a good choice - I wish I knew he was looking.
