When I worked in the restaurant biz, I made friends with our HVAC contractor. He service nothing but McDonalds in SoCal, and made pretty good money. He had a steady supply of reliable (paying) customers who didn't treat him like crap. But he had a hard time keeping anyone on staff since as soon as they learned the ropes, they started their own company.
- bradfa 4y agoMy plumber is the same way. One man business and said it’s hard to keep employees as once trained they quickly job shop for a raise and he can’t match the bigger firms’ pay or they’d strike out on their own. So he gave up on it and stays a one man operation. Not the best for me if there’s an emergency in the middle of the night but having a plumber I trust and who will show me what he’s doing is a fair trade off.
