Cleaning Fee Consent Form

The #2 reason a driver gets fired is for "Returning  a limo dirty". The problem is not that he/she didn't do a 2-minute vacuum on the carpet. It is that he/she has no respect for themself, the company, the cleaning crew, or the next driver. For that specific reason, he/she does not belong on our team. If an exception is made and the lazy driver is not fired, than they will be fined a Cleaning Fee. If you do not like this Driver Consent Rule, please go work for another company.

Think about this for 1 minute. A driver does a job till 3am, then decides he is too tired to clean the bus out. The next morning, another driver has a 6am pick up. So, the new driver shows up at 5:35am because his pick-up is only 5 minutes from the lot. He walks on the bus and the whole thing looks like it just did a 14-hour run to Jimmy Buffet. The problem is the previous driver just made $25/hr. x 14 = $350 plus they gave him an extra $100. So, because he made $450, he doesn’t care if he gets a cleaning fee. He still made $350 for doing what? Nothing. He sat at a Jimmy Buffet concert for 14 hours. Now the other driver feels disrespected. He woke up in a good mood looking to chauffeur his clients. Now, he has to go detail a 30-passenger bus and will be 45 minutes late to his pick-up.  The domino effect is that the clients cannot be late or they will miss their Block Island Ferry.  So, the driver has to make a tough decision. Show up late and let them miss their boat? Or pick up the client in a filthy bus full of alcohol stains and garbage. Can you see now, why we go the extra mile to protect our drivers and our clients? The solution is simple. FIRE lazy employees. They are lazy for a reason. That is who they are. Get rid of them and the moral of the company will be high.
