They said that when you acquire enough money, you purchase a uniform, then stake-out a parking lot to ‘guard’.
Collect tips for not allowing the cars to be stolen.
And maybe call in when a high-value ride shows up?
A full-time job.
My uncle came to visit me in Albuquerque several years ago with his motorhome and Ford Escape in tow. After leaving my house, he went to El Paso to see an Army buddy. He was inside his friends house 15 minutes, he came outside and found the Escape gone.
