At a party over the weekend a group of friends and I somehow got onto the topic of Car Guards and one of the guys chimed up saying, ‘Hey, have you ever wondered how much Car Guards earn?!’ We all looked at him not really sure, coz probably none of us had! He went on to give a little bit of a mathematical breakdown of their earning potential.
If the average Car Gaurd gets tipped between R2 and R5 per parking bay (so lets average that to R3.50 per bay) and looks after a specific group of 10 bays. Lets take a guess and assume that each parking bay rotates with new cars an average of 10 times a day. He is actually doing pretty well per day! Lets look at it via the maths.
R3.50 per person x 10 cars = R35.00
R35.00 per rotation x 10 rotations = R350.00 per day!
R350.00 per day x 25 working days (roughly) = R8750.00 per month!
Not bad hey! There is potentially a bit of a business there! If they simply increase their Parking Bay count by another 10 they walk away with a wopping R17,500.00 per month!!
I am in the wrong business!!
Upside:- Really good earnings for a job that appears to give you loads of free time!
Downside:- You probably couldn’t pull out your laptop and start writing posts for your blog!
