Ok so here’s my dilemma. I leave it to the board to decide. I’m on lunch brake at the harbor brewery. 2 beers in. Do I stay or head back to finish the port side?Ya, tell me about it. I quit one detailer because he jacked up his rate. He said 'it's about what everyone is charging now', so he wanted more for his crappy results.
Then I heard about a guy, 'he's the best but expensive'... a 100 bucks an hour. OK man do your thing. I popped in to see how things were going and he wasn't even working on my boat. He had two young people on my boat, one was a gal that had never buffed/waxed a boat in her life...so I got another crappy job along with some argument when we settled up.
So last year I figured 'screw 'em all', I'll do it myself. Quite the attitude from a guy that uses a cane most the time, can't kneel so sits on his ass and scoots. I got lucky and found a really good kid for a helper. I about wore myself out, lost 20+ pounds doing my boat...but it looked the best it ever has.
Problem is that this year my helper isn't available and I don't think I have it in me to tackle the job again...maybe I can but I don't want to.
From about age 11 to age 15 I spent all of my time away from school being my dad's helper, not paid. I hated it, but looking back I learned a lot, and can do most things myself now.My first job was $2.15/hr….. fry guy at Burger King…. I can remember when min wage went up to $2.35….we were so excited.
The decision will be easier to make in a couple hours.O

A small restaurant I go to seems to be always short of help. I asked about it, they said the waitresses were averaging $300 a day tips during the week, more on weekends and they can't get people to work.Shoneys here, fry cook, dishwasher, busboy, and later work my way up to being a server. May $24 in 3 hours the first lunch I worked, I thought I was rich.
I used to tip the boat detailers and wash guys very well, can't even find them now. $20 an hour plus tips could be a good summer gig.
Here’s the problem today. I have a friend’s kid who’s kinda trying to find himself. I have basic shipping, receiving jobs. Hire HS kids around 10-12 per hr. Now probably 12-14 per hour. Beer money. Good consistent flexible work which allows them to take classes, etc. Kid won’t consider it because he can make $20 doing grub hub or something. Problem is, it’s only 2-3 hrs per day. Can’t. See the bigger picture.
I knew that's why you could relate to a cheeseburgerMy first job was $2.15/hr….. fry guy at Burger King…. .
Know them well good peopleHere's the company I used to use for my bi weekly wash. Key word being used to.
What kind of wash do you think people will get when they're paying these rates?

Two years before we sold Beachcomber I had her hauled to straighten props. While she was on the hard I decided to wax the entire hull. It took me 5 days working 5-6 hours a day. To get the underside of the pulpit I had to stand on an 8' ladder and reach as high as I could. What a job but she looked good when I was done.Woody said:is that this year my helper isn't available and I don't think I have it in me to tackle the job again...maybe I can but I don't want to.
Polish and wax the side you see when you walk down the dock. Launch.O

Back in the 70's my cousin got a job at one of the Playboy clubs. He was happier than hell, he figured he'd be banging bunnies....but not a one. He did swipe some ashtrays with the logo on them. That's all he got, no other awesome memories
