Yes quote parser, I'm well aware that to have a service where people have their clothes washed by someone under your employ, you have to actually employ someone. As it happens I'm not retarded.

You do it yourself at first, when business picks up, you hire a part-timer at minimum. Turns out people will pay extra to not have to be at the laundromat or spend the rest of the day washing a families worth of clothes in one washing machine at home. Fortunately, you have twenty washers, a couple industrial, and a line of dryers to get it done in an hour or so.

Like I said, I mentioned it because its worked out well for the laundromat that I used to go to.

Sheesh. And thank you for assuming I'm so retarded I thought you didn't know that.

The implication in the OP was that it was a business where he wouldn't have to invest a lot of time in it personally or have too many employees. Having a wash/dry/fold service can potentially bring in customers, but costs either personal time or salary. Which may not be worth it.
