is there a regulation  requiring tanning salons to change their bulbs after so many hours? if so, how many?

As far as I know there isn't, just get gutsy and ask them if the bulb is still affective after a year.

It's not inexpensive, they cost quite a bit, and so do the replacement bulbs.

No. It is not right. It has been a long time since I have looked at the laws and they might have varied a little in that time. But I do know it used to be anything over five hours you had to have a half hour. Anything over seven hours you are entitled to another half hour.\n\nI will look up and see if I can find recent laws. \nFight your boss and if they will not change then take it to the BBB or the county.

I think it's because they do the maintenance at night. Maybe Tom has a day job so he can only fix the site at night. :)

it will take some time to get a nice tan. don't rush in there and bake for the 1/2 hr. they will put u on a chart for how long each time til ur skin is ready to be in there for the 1/2 hr. and i think its about the same danger as the sun. maybe a lil more but u won't have to be out in the sun all day when u can just lay in the bed and get one.

If the bulbs are intact, I wouldn't worry.  The powder is probably dust from something in the room.\n\nFluorescent bulbs should be taken to a household hazardous waste day.  They contain mercury (but only on the inside).\n\nMost communities accept hazardous waste either at the waste station or at specific sites a few times a year.  You can call whomever picks up your trash and recycling and ask them about hazardous waste.

there are no laws... but in the employer's policies there might be something about being sent home early.  Like where I work, we do not have to go unless we want to and they can not work us less than 4 hours unless we want to work less.

Shifting the time within the day should have no effect.  You could probably start taking them in the afternoon with no effect and then could transition to nighttime within a few days after that.

The Better Business Bureau won't be able to do a thing for you, so disregard those answers.  They only take complaints about work performed by the company for customers.  I'll tell you who to contact at the end.\n\nAs for your first question, yes, they can "force" you to work on your day off, if it's a right to work situation (ie., you're not in a union or contracted to work specific days).  They have to give you a certain amount of advance notice, I believe though, if they change your schedule.\n\nThe second question is answered "no."  Unless you are salaried, federal law says you must be given a 15-minute break every 4 hours, and paid overtime for any amount of time over 40 hours you work in a week (so if you only work 32 hours, including the 10 you worked that day, you don't qualify).\n\nEvery state is different - I'm answering pretty generally - the things I said are pretty universal in the U.S.  As I said, the BBB won't do a thing.  You need to contact your local Department of Labor (call City Hall or your congressman to find out what it's called in your city/county/state).  Good luck.

Usually...11pm-7am or 10pm-6:30am. It all depends on the company though.

false, but the rumor probably started I believe one of Edison's bulbs is still burning in Menlo park (his lab).\n\nIt's never been turned off, which helps it last longer.

it depends on the size of the bulb, doesn't it?  many different sizes and shapes of bulb..... i'm not sure if there is a size of bulb that every person could 1) fit in their mouth but 2) not remove.  if there is, they should call it the "universally bad idea to stick in your mouth bulb, extra soft lighting 60watt."\n\nanother option would probably be remove the teeth, that would be my guess regarding what's getting in the way.\n\nvery appropriately timed question, as i just replaced two bulbs that had burnt out.\n\nhow many ecluv7's does it take to screw in a lightbulb?  only 1/2, because i do two at once.  :)
