I'm going to have to agree that guy Adam will get what's coming his way he gets over hiring independent contractors of coarse for his own selfish reasons and picks and chooses. Then again with his attitude towards people I'm not quit sure he'd be able to keep anyone. His attitude is so negative towards people this job is okay for someone needing extra cash for the mean time but to have to deal with all the extras look else where. The pay doesn't weigh out when it gets busy you run around like a lunatic for a few extra dollars and when it does slow down for you to catch up financially they let you go again so to blow all this money on gas and tolls and to have some p*** screaming at you for not wanting blow you profit really isn't worth the aggravation. I agree save your car time money and agree. That guy Adam needs some people 101 skills he treats everyone like crap he comes off like revenge of the nerds. Oh another way to keep your job is kiss his ### if you want your lips in places like that lmao

Franchise is a total fraud. ALL owners of a franchise are required to nickel and dime the employees and prospective customers.
The profit margins are razor thin. No chance of growth with this company. NO ONE ever makes more than $10 an hour...
Products continually leak due to cheap imported parts from Mexico and Thailand...

Financial Disclosure

The franchisor is obligated to give a prospective franchisee financial disclosure of the franchisor's business.

One of my concerns is that this financial disclosure is less than what a shareholder gets in a public company.

A shareholder can exist relatively quickly, but a franchisee is usually stuck for the term of the franchise contract - a situation that calls for more disclosure and not less.

Here is the type of example that should be of concern, from the franchisor 1-800 Radiator's 2009 filing.

A number of questions spring to mind, especially since this is buried in the footnote of the financials.

1. Is Radiator Express really the franchisor, if it is doing all the collection and operational functions? If so, where are its financials - it being the "parent company"?

2. How much additional funds does the Parent need? Is it in danger of no longer being an going concern? What will happen to the franchisee operational support being provided?

3. It is now the middle of 2010 and there has been nothing filed on Caleasi which answers question 1 or 2. Is Radiator Express insolvent, preparing a receivership, or preparing for bankruptcy. Franchisees really need to know this.

4. Radiator Express, in this note, appears to be charging the franchisor a sum equal to most of the franchisor's revenue. But where is the explanation of what forms the basis of these charges - we don't have any information in the FDD about Radiator Express.

I could be way off base on this questions, and maybe there is a simple answer. Does anyone from 1-800 Radiator have an explanation?

"There" radiators? "There" name? And you are calling this other person unorganized? Oh, excuse me, "un organized".
