Laundromat Attendant M-F 150pm to 9pm Job at Black & Gold Wash & Fold

Black & Gold Wash & Fold New Orleans, LA 70130

$15 - $20 an hour

We are primarily looking for someone to take 2-3 of the following shifts, but we can move shifts around to other days but you need to be available either 8am-210pm or 150pm-9pm.

Monday 8am-210pm
Friday 8am-210pm
Saturday 8am-210pm
Saturday 150pm-9pm
Sunday 8am-210pm
Sunday 150pm-9pm

(Again, only 2-3 shifts are available per hire, but others need their shifts covered all the time. This will never be a full-time job.

This job is really more like being a bartender in a restaurant but in a laundromat. Instead of making drinks, you're folding laundry. Instead of taking food orders at tables, you're helping coin laundry people understand where to put detergent. Instead of your biggest bar tippers sticking around and trying to talk to you, wash and fold customers just come in to pick up their stuff and leave (in fact, they would feel awkward if you tried to talk to them). Similarly, the customers who don't tip you at all in a bar will be the ones who don't tip you in the laundromat but who want to stick around and try to talk to you. Also, folding laundry is way harder than pouring drinks. So, you'll get much higher hourly wage plus tips and commission with us in the laundromat instead of at a bar where you get either guaranteed minimum wage or $2.50 an hour plus tips for a total amount greater than minimum wage.

We have a quirky local laundromat, and we believe a lot in the way it brings communities together. We also believe in $15 minimum wage and other progressive ideals.

The attendant role not that complicated of a job. You are the attendant for a laundromat. You'll be there to help customers having problems with the machines. Drop off customers will give you their laundry to do. You will be handling money, transactions, and cash. With experience, there will be opportunities to learn more about training, payroll, bookkeeping, accounting, financial analysis, P&L, marketing, social media, email marketing, etc.

When it's not busy, you'll be reading, using social media or watching TV or silly videos online, listening to music, or doing your homework.

You will get paid $15 per hour PLUS tips PLUS 10% of the Wash & Fold business that you wash and fold. We prefer if you were able to work 2 or more 6-hour shifts per week. We are open 7 days a week. The shifts are 8am to 2pm and 2pm to 9pm. If we get really busy, we might have after-hour shifts.

While we do sometimes have job after hours that only focuses on laundry, this role is not ideal for people only with hotel laundry experience.

While working as a cashier in retail is good experience for handling our own retail section, this role is not ideal for someone only with cashier experience.

While mechanic and construction experience is uniquely valuable because we're always fixing machines and other things, this role is not ideal for someone only with mechanic or construction experience.

While administrative experience is incredibly important towards demonstrating a sufficient attention to detail with documents and spreadsheets (which we use), someone only with jobs in the seated position would really struggle in this job.

The ideal candidate from a job competency perspective is someone with a heap of server experience, a dash of administrative experience, and a slice of bartender experience. Mechanical experience is really more like the cherry, but it's not required. But we strongly prefer people with a good mix of ingredients.
