Cl REPO TIME!!!!!

Later today our collections guy and I might go repo a '97 2.2 primrose mist!!!!!
The funny thing is I know exactly the car we're repoing.
I was at a bar till after closing a few weeks ago and I saw this same CL in the parking lot.
I figured it had to be an employee of the bar because all cars were gone except ours and the employees still inside.
Our collection guy tracked down this girl from 3 old jobs and found out she waitresses at this bar.
I can't wait to go snatch it

My job with the bank I work for isn't all that exciting, but I have gone on about 10 repo's since I've worked here.
I usually get to drive the car back. A few have been just digusting or unsafe.
I drove back a Trans Am once with mouse shit in the back seat, no seat belt, hardly any brakes, no mirrors, and the stench of a smoker car.
Another one we took, the woman we took it from started crying pretty bad......I kinda felt bad about that one........NOT

First we'll talk to her and see if we can get the money she owes us (she's 3 months past due)
If she doesn't have the money today, we take it today.
Then we give her a week to come up with the money or at least the majority of money.
Then if she can't come up with anything, we'll try to sell it for what she owes on it ($7866.86)
We almost never get all the money owed on the car.
We'll sell it for as much as we can and then sue the customer for the difference.

If we go get it later I'll let you know what kind of condition it's in.
From the bar that night I saw it, the body looked in good condition.

Well, the repo is on hold for today.
I know the owner of the bar where she works, by coincidence him and I went to the same high school and have known each other since.
As a professional courtesy I wanted to warn him that we might have to take her car while she's at work since we can't verify her current address and phone#.
He was cool about it, but since it's between us and her, he said he would prefer the bar not be involved since it wouldn't be good for business.
He didn't sound too shocked that she was behind on her payments
