A national holiday? Are you fucking kidding me?
In totally unrelated news, just a few minutes ago I heard through the front door of my tiny studio as my next-door neighbor got a midnight visit from the repo man coming to get their truck. Now how will they get to McDonald’s for their Obama cake?

I had a vehicle repo’d once: is the idea that in the middle of the night one is sleepy and therefore less likely to be able to come up with persuasive arguments against repossession? ha. For Heaven’s sake; I know it’s coming, pft, come and get the damn thing at a civilised hour, ha.

I once got a notice from the bank to “make the vehicle available” to them. I was not even 60 days late, the bastards. So I hid my car in a friend’s garage for a couple of weeks until I got caught up. I didn’t have a garage, so the repo guys would just keep going when they didn’t see the car.

I have a reverse repo story from a mate of a mate who installed the electrical system into fire fighting trucks built by a company famous for payment hassles with contractors (including this guy on a previous job).
He finished the work got in one of the trucks and drove it out the front gate, saying he was commissioning the electrical system. He drove the truck to a mates farm, hid it in a shed and called the company to say he would tell them where it was when he got his money. Worked out all right in the end.
