AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on finding effective strategies for monitoring and managing utility and operational expenses in a car wash business with five branches. The focus is on reducing costs related to water, electricity, and supplies while also engaging staff in resource conservation. Suggestions include implementing a scheme to encourage employees to minimize waste, potentially offering bonuses based on reduced costs in the future. The idea of hiring a continuous monitoring service, specifically Ecova, is also considered to help maintain low energy consumption and motivate staff. The overall goal is to improve budgeting and resource management while keeping employee engagement in mind, with plans to assess the effectiveness of these strategies over time.

I've done research about tips and tutorials, but I have not found any answer that will be applicable in monitoring and managing the utilities and operational expenses of our company. By the way, to make it clearer, I'm assisting my brother-in-law with his car wash business. He operates 5 branches in different locations. For that matter, we are finding solutions to reduce and do some budgeting of our company resources like the water, electricity and other supplies. We want also our staff to be aware of this. To cut it short, do you have any new methods to share with regards to constant monitoring and reduction of our expenses?
 
I guess you could introduce a scheme to encourage staff not to waste resources, while still providing an effective service.
If the plan works, you share your reduced costs with them in the form of a monthly bonus or something.
 
I'm actually thinking of hiring the http://www.ecova.com/solution/continuous-monitoring-management/ that were referred by a family friend who also owns a convenience store that operates 24/7. These guys can do continuous monitoring and energy saving measures to keep our energy consumption low. I hope they can also help motivate the employees to work at their best and avoid wasting good energy.. offering bonuses sounds good, but as of the moment we are running on a budget, maybe that could come later when we resolve our issue with our utility bills! I hope our plan will work I'll keep you posted.
 
Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
