Love this review of my last book on Amazon; "I would not recommend spending any money on this publication."
And you didn't listenAs much as I will probably die a little when I read the book, I can assure you that the stories from inside the rental industry are just as entertaining and eye-opening as those of our customers.
Bodies found in the back of a burning van? Check...
A lost & found box containing prosthetic limbs, sunglasses and sex toys? Check...
Repossessing vans with a coffin in the back? Check...
Collecting a 32t grab wagon from a site and finding a speed camera in the back? Check...
Collecting a frosted up vehicle from a customer house with footprints on the inside of the windscreen? Check...
Getting a vehicle repossessed from Raqqa? Check...

S11 Steve - you should write a book!
It's been mentioned before amongst a few long-serving colleagues in the industry.Another one to add is a close call with shoe-bomber Richard Reid. He tried to hire a car to drive to Paris where he caught the flight from, but we refused the rental. Checking the CCTV with the police a few days later, we are pretty certain that when he came in, he was wearing the same boots that he tried to detonate on the plane.

I do find people that treat rental cars like 2 bit hookers are cocks.
How do YOU treat 2 bit hookers?You have not one but multiple 2 bit hookers?
That's just plain greedy!
If only the makers of Left Behind could follow suit as the world needs Left Behind 2.

As greedy as having a book ready for publication but asking strangers to foot the bill/risk.

If the absence of a smiley means you're serious this explains a lot about your posting style; fundamentalist christian propaganda(or indeed any brand of fundamentalist religious propaganda) is something the world needs a lot less of. Quite how crowdfunding the creation of more such dreck is any less 'greedy' is unclear.If only the makers of Left Behind could follow suit as the world needs Left Behind 2.
