If you basically live at your job, you will understand these stages of tanning perfectly. You barely have time for yourself, let alone time to tan.
Stage one:
It's summertime now, you're still working basically every day. Hey, no big deal, you'll just get off work and head immediately to the nearest place to tan, catching those last few hours of sunlight. WRONG. You're exhausted when you get off work, the last thing you want to do is strip down to basically nothing and lay in the heat.
Stage two:
So, you have an off day coming up. Awesome, time to soak up the sun am I right?? You'll get out there in your cutest new swimmy, apply the minimum amount of sunscreen ( so you can get "extra tan"), listen to some tunes and scorch that skin all day! However, one of two hunts will happen. 1. You'll burn to a crisp, because of you're lack of tan. 2. You'll get the smallest amount of a tan ever. Not to mention, this was probably the only off day for the next few weeks, hope you enjoyed it.
Stage three:
Before you know it, it's already fall and any hope for a tan is lost. Football season is here and the cold months are among us. You still remain hopeful for next year and hold on to that small tan line you see underneath your bracelet. Don't worry, there is always next year! ( I'm sure you're used to saying that.)
