This week- I had to lay three people off due to continually not following directions, as well as lack of working. Two of the 3 new people I hired as replacements no showed. Mind you this is after I verified they’d be there the night before. The third new hire called out sick on the fourth day. One power washer broke down, the second that one was fixed the second power washer broke down. There’s a new manager at one of my contracts. As we were washing, he came out and told us to stop because they are looking to, “cut costs”. But they love our work! Driver at another contract accused my old employees of stealing his belongings yet half of his belongings were in the belongings trailer?? Another contract called complaining because the wheels & gas tanks weren’t bright enough. Mind you on the initial bid wheels & tanks were never discussed or included. Luckily I have an amazing supplier who had the perfect chemicals. Sunday employee no shows which means I drop everything & go to work. Half of the trailers we are supposed to wash out are not pulled out far enough for us to access them. It’s weeks like these where people who are self employed quit. I choose to learn, adapt, and fight. I choose to Never Quit!
