Ok, thanks for all the input guys, positive, and what i would call negative.
I believe that poles, bulgarians, lithuanians etc in general do work very hard and do a good job, thats why they make a success of washing cars. Any complaints anyone has with them being here should be directed at our government NOT with them. I think there is a huge lack of hard working brits, because it often doesnt pay to work hard with our benefits system. Stupid governments fault ofcourse. These foreign workers know the value of money and what it means to their families back home who dont have the chance to work hard or earn much. who wouldnt do this for their family if u had 2?
For those of us who do work hard and have businesses to care for,,, i think it is a concern when people are prepared to do the same job, maybe better, for much less money. If the general attitude of our custies is that they dont want foreigners on their property, and thats the only thing holding them back from getting the job done at half or a 3rd of the price, then its only a matter of time until peoples attitude changes (maybe with the help of the car washers getting people used to them)
Im not actually that worried about losing my customers, i just think things could get very competitive out there in the future.
