Totally empty. Today was our slowest day since we bought it. Weather was fine. Mondays are usually busy. No events going on. No holidays. Why??

Original caption

So bizarre. Our laundromat was VERY slow all day today. The last few Mondays have been booming so much so that I’ve been considering hiring just for Mondays. Today - nothing. The weirdest part is there doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason when a normally busy day is slow. What do you think it could be? #laundromatowner #smallbusinessowner #slowday #startuplife #smallbusinessstruggles
