I got an interview driving a tow truck for a company here in Garland.
And I was curious about what the average take home pay is per week. They told me I would get 30% of every call (works out to $34 per tow) But I know tow truck drivers do a lot of other stuff besides towing.
They said 95% of their calls are from Police, and people with broke down vehicles. So I wouldnt have to worry much about dealing with a someone who is uber pissed because I am repossessing their ride.

DUDE other stuff means taking bribes. The tow places around san marcos or hell any university are notorious!
I've bribed those mother fuckers so many times. Hell I'd rather pay 50 bucks and have him leave it than 130 bucks and go thru all that bull shit. But yeah I can see it being good money.

Well I know they will do jump starts, and deliver a few gallons of gas to you if you run out.

I hope you have a GUN. The shop I use to work for would work on some tow truck companys vehicles and most had 4-10 bullet holes in them.
