Recently I have been involved with some installation work, just recently got back from Abu Dhabi where I helped install a tunnel for the largest Mercedes Benz dealership in the world....pretty awesome.My question is:do you mind paying a higher labor rate for work performed on the weekends.
As an owner operator I have no problem paying a higher labor rate for work performed on a Saturday or Sunday.What are your thoughts?

I think some operators do mind paying weekend rates. A few of my customers will wait until Monday to call me even if their wash goes down on a Saturday morning. The difference is if they want the weekend revenues or not. Most do, but some don't care. Some people will give up a dollar to save a dime. I think almost every service person charges higher rates on weekends , evenings, and holidays.
