Hi All,

What do you pay your employees? Need a caretaker for a 4 bay SS. Duties will include cleaning the lot, trash, washing down bays, refilling vending machine, recycling tokens, cleaning vacs and filters, small repairs (hoses and swivels). Not more than couple hours per day work.
 
Where is everyone finding employees? Posting some online page? Posting up at the wash? Etc. Looking to buy a few more and it will be time to add some employees.
 
Hello everyone

I have an issue at my self-Service car wash one of my bay the high presure water option is not working. Can anyone tell me what maybe wrong or how I can fix that without spending a lot on techincian. Thanks
 
I pay one guy about $50 per car wash which takes him about 2 hrs. each wash so $25/hr. My weekend guy that mainly does trash pick up, cleans bays, and test equipment I pay $15/hr. He's an older guy so I don't want him up on a ladder.

I did trust one of my guys and had been suspecting something for a while but never took action. Installed hidden cameras and he was getting a handful of quarters from each location at least once sometimes twice a week. Coincidentally, he would hire or subcontract a homeless guy to help him with his duties but funny thing is when I busted him stealing he no longer hired the homeless guy, funny how that works.

I am not a full time car wash operator, even though I should be, but I gave him a key in the event of bill jams or hopper jams in the coin machine. Never will do that again.
