Take a look.
I bid on this chain a couple of years ago.They only wanted to pay $100 then and it looks like they are still getting their monies worth.These guys went all out on chems as well.I saw 1 dollar store jug of bleach sitting next to the machine.

After 4 1/2 hours these guys managed to get the sidewalks done.That's all they were hired to wash.There is only sidewalks on 2 sides of the building.Most of us could have done 8 to 10 locations in that time frame with our rigs.

I did some quick math and figured these 2 guys made about $11 and hour each.Oh wait,not they didn't they had to drive there,buy gas for their truck and machine & buy 1 gallon of dollar store bleach.Let's call it $9 an hour each.
They can buy a 12 pack of beer each tonight.Hahahahahahahahaha.................

If they're willing to work for so little pay, you hould inquire about subbing them.;)

bleach at a gas station?are they trying to make a bomb???!!!
 
It just amazes me everytime I see this. I Love how they pressure clean during the day when everyone is running in and out of the store. They do the same thing here.
 
Welcome to my world in South Florida. There are guys down here that will go up on a high two story roof that will take them all day for that kind of money. I get customers that ask for a quote because they said they cant find the guy that did it the last time. When I ask how much they paid they say $150. That's when I say, "well that's why that guy is not around any more". These fly by night guys are killing the industry and driving down the pricing for all of us. It's pretty sad but we just have to hold firm to our pricing. I am not about to whore my self out. Plus the fact of putting ware and tare on my equipment. You get what you pay for.
 
Your nicer than me.I would have took a pic of them next to their machines and chems all while they were on their smoke break propped up against the gas tank with a beer in their hands. Also, I would make sure the company and store number were prominent in the photo lol.
