I wish I could go back and spend one day working at a job from my youth and it would be...
I wish I could remember the exact amount of years that I worked for Tan N Go, (Felicia, Lindsay, Lacey if you gals are reading help me out!!) When I started working at Tan N Go the name was actually Island Tan, it was a fabulous tanning salon in East Memphis. I loved working there and meeting all of the "tanners" that would come in each and every day! I got to know so many of these people and know about their lives, some of the things I did not want to know but they ALWAYS wanted to tell me! Tan N Go/Island Tan was such a happy place, customers coming in to relax and get that 20-30min nap on their lunch break or after work. For most people tanning is such a relaxing time, and that is what it was a VERY relaxing job! Even after all these years, I will see people that I were "my" customers at the tanning salon and I love catching up with them. I have been very fortunate in that the owners of the salons are still some of my closest friends, we LOVE getting together and telling stories about the old days and some of the crazy customer stories!!
Ahhhhhhh......the memories.
I have posted a picture for y'all from my Tan N Go/Island Tans....what do ya think?? Did I need a TAN???? HA!!! I am the one in the red sweater, Marlana is the one in the overalls HAHAHAHAHAHA!! - how ridiculously tan was I??
PROOF RIGHT HERE THAT TAN N GO HAS THE BEST TANNING BEDS IN THE MEMPHIS AREA!!

What a cool "teen" job! I always wanted to work in a tanning salon (secretly still do!) Sounds like a fun job:)
ReplyDeleteI went there yesterday. I always think of you and the Jess story when I pass by a Tan N Go.
ReplyDeleteIt's so funny how tan you are and you probably didn't even think so at the time!
