For several months we made a lot of money repossessing cars for our new boss. Our pick-up rate was always over 90%, and it was not because we could not find the other 10%. The ones we did not repossess usually ended up paying up and resulted in us getting a close fee. Once in a great while we had an order that stumped us, but I do not believe anyone could have gotten the car picked up. I can remember the day the boss rang me up and asked to meet with us in person. We met in the parking lot of a truck stop. He slowly got out of his car and walked towards us with an envelope in his hand. He congratulated us on a job well done, handed me the envelope and said, “There is a little extra in there for you and your partner to go out and have a nice steak. After he left, I checked the envelope and, besides our check, there was an extra $250. I guess he was expecting us to get a big steak!!
