One of the best jobs I have ever had.

Ideal hours - 1 am to 5 am - 4 days a week at $700 a week (in 1988 this was mad money!)

I was merely an assistant (a lookout and driver) to the actual repossessor, Leonard - a short, skinny 40 year old - who would crack up laughing every time we had to make a run for our lives.

We lost our jobs when NCNB became Nations Bank (who are now Bank of America).
