Yep, that about says it. If you figure it out, write a book, you'll make millions.
I worked at UPS as a loader in college. We were paid $11./hr. (This was 1983). We busted our asses because we were making three times what our buddies were making flipping burgers. They were able to staff the place with half as many workers. We were dependable as hell and worked like dogs.
I also General Managed a car wash that was similar to your current situation. My turnover was 30%. A month. Completely turned over staff every quarter. I hired and fired somebody it seemed like everyday. I tried paying more money, it didn't help. If people are lazy and unmotivated, money won't make them so.
The two rules of business. There is never enough money. There is never enough time.
Keep your chin up.
Oh, and BTW it's 'niche'
