Hihi been awhile.
Background: If your car is towed without you being aware of it, it is either getting repo-ed, impounded by Police, or the owner of a property calls us to remove your vehicle from said property. The price of these tows are to be paid by you when you come get your car.
Midnight (I leave work at PM and then it's Night Call which is dispatched by main office):
Police Call - A suspicious vehicle is to be removed from a small junk yard not too far from our shop that has no real fence. The person was taken into custody and then had to be bailed out. Its a truck with a stationary flatbed on the back and was IN the yard. The person was inside the junk yard at midnight.
Fast forward to the next day when the owner of the truck and his woman come in to pick up the truck. Of course, they did not want to pay the bill but ended up doing so because without money, they don't get their truck. I've been here 9 years, I stopped being sympathetic years ago.
The gem, after all this though, is what she had said while he was filling out the paperwork.
"The police had no right impounding our truck. They had no right to tell us that we couldn't park on the side of the road. If I want to park on the side of the road and take a walk, the police have NO right to impound our truck and take us to jail!"
My driver waits until everything is taken care of and she says 2 more times about parking and walking. Then as they drive off he goes,
"Walking and parking is no problem, but when you are caught inside of a junkyard STEALING... well that's a totally different kind of problem. If I go park my car in her driveway and walk around in her back yard, is she going to be OK with that?"
