JBG I know from experience! It is not a easy job especially depending on the level of dirt on the truck. Yours was fairly dirty but an easy job. I use to work at TA Truck wash in Greensboro, NC and If you would've brought blue there you would've been pleased!
$155 divided by 7 men = $16.43 per hour per man. And you know Blue Beacon has to be getting 50% or more. Divide that by 60 (minutes) and multiply by 10 (the number of minutes in the hour they worked)... And viola, Blue prolly put about $1.37 in each man's pocket only if Blue Beacon takes half the cost as profit. Not picking on you, we all need to think about the folk working in service industry like you do! I got to spend 5 1/2 years (high school and first year of college) in Baguio, Benguet Province in the Philippines. AWESOME! The PI is my second home. Love the people, love the land, love the culture! Salazar Po for the vids!
Hay JBG~ No The Truck Washers Don't make more than you, min. wage & long hours, & a rush job & like you said a spotty job @ that!! But Blue does look better now! I cant believe I X a month for a wash job especially in the winter/spring months that's when you need it the most! Well safe & GOD Bless you as always~
JBG TRAVELS Yeah, I know what your saying there! I need to get my car wash to its been a while too & shes white I named her Wild Fire like the song! LOL!!! She don't look that bad tho~
I am off work. I was sleeping earlier when you recorded this series of videos going through northern Kentucky. Wish I would have known I would have ran over to Walton to have a coffee with you. If you was at the Flying J I had to run to the otherside of the highway to get our roll back from the shop this evening.
Tomorrow at noon. Let me see what I have going on. I will send you an email on facebook if I can maybe meet you. I'm sure Facebook is easier for you to communicate.
I guess the apu runs all of your appliances in the sleeper....right? Blu looks awful clean to me. Looks just washed to me. :-) Where did you mount the cam this time..on the right side of your head? I think the cam on the top of your bill cap would have been a little intimidating. Oh...how sneaky of you to give us a view in the mirror across the counter....cool! That is one big camera. You've got guts John...I'll tell you. I couldn't do that. I saw blue becon's in Beaumont tx. back in 81. They were popular then. $115.00 for the entire tractor and trailer.....not bad I guess. You would think they would have big blowers to get the water off of everything like in drive through car washs. I agree with you...I would think that would all freeze in those temps. That's why they make minimum wage...it's minimum work. I thought they did that waaaaaay to fast to do a thorough job. $40.00?????? I thought it was $115.00 No wonder they missed so much. I saw the one guy going around and in the back pointing out missed spots....guess he needed a spotter for the spotter. "Live and Work as unto the Lord." If it was only $40.00 then not a bad job. I guess management has them under a time constraint on how much time to spend on certain units/vehicle/trailors. You know how cost cutting is. Take care. Glad I got the update's fixed so they get emailed to me as soon as you upload them. Maybe you can give a brief explanation of how it works...with wifi or whatever. I have to take out my usb card and download into my compter and edit it through video pad. But I haven't done anything in a while. Take care.

Great vid John, I always like a clean truck
Blue will be a happy truck all clean
The motor in the APU is the same motor they use on wood processors. Pretty versatile motor.

Always tell them to wash again before you leave. It’s free
And brush it’s your right
He needed it

Tomorrow at noon. Let me see what I have going on. I will send you an email on facebook if I can maybe meet you. I'm sure Facebook is easier for you to communicate.

You were not satishfied with the wash,so i wondered why she didnt get a big wash with everything 😀
They get paid minimum wage
Why didnt you take a big wash??
What do you mean?
Wouldnt happen if u was at the little sisters
Not as dirty as the driver
Yes they could have done better
