Most of that dont apply to me , like any thing towing has its different sectors of work . The only repo's i did were either friendly where they are turning the auto in . Couple times i did the sneak and grab's for GM but that was rare .

Parking lot patrol , controversial at the least , also its not done up north . I feel it causes part of the bad image of towing .

Hariest stuff i did was Drug work , I was armed , officer on each running board with shot guns . Id go in with the rade on a drug house to remove the autos in the area . Becuase i was trained as an officer and served as well they didnt want my drivers , it was always me doing those jobs .

There was an attempted robbery on me once , plenty of nasty customers over the years , accident secenes too but i suppose like any job you dwell on the fun times and the positive so you can do it again tomorrow .
