This is where I've been taking both of my vehicles to wash on a regular basis. The facilities are nice, and there are four large bays to hand wash (which is my preference).
Last week I was washing my wife's car with the bay doors open. After soaping my car, I opened the bay doors to allow the soapy steam to blow out of the bay. As I was rinsing my car off, the attendant stormed into my bay and we had the following exchange:
attendant: (yelling) SHUT THE DOORS, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?!
me: no thanks, I don't want the soapy steam to get back the car that I'm trying to clean.
attendant: I don't care, these bays are heated.
me: I'm not interested in the heated feature, I'm interested in a clean car. You should get an exhaust system if you want to keep the doors shut.
attendant: go down the street to the old carwash if you want a bay without doors
me: don't worry, you won't ever see me here again.
Well that escalated quickly! If the man had come in and asked politely if he could shut my bay doors, I probably would have let him. I've never been approached so rudely at a place of business. Not how a customer should be treated, ever. Taking my ~50 washes per year elsewhere. read more
