The dishonesty continues...

So yesterday at my employment I was working and two members were meeting with this person I talked about in a previous blog. He was talking to them about this dealership that went out of business but sold the car that they traded in to the dealership but never paid off their loan. Whenever a person trades a car into a dealership that dealership has to pay off that loan by law. Well this dealership didn't pay off these people loan and sold their car on top of that. So the members came to us for help because they are still making their payments on the loan in order to not hurt their credit. They wanted to know if we would go repo the car for them and this person who works here said he wouldn't because he had no reason to and that he couldn't. I just sat at my desk listening to him telling them this and was in utter confusion and quite honestly I was pissed off. We have every right to repo the car! I checked our security agreement and everything to double check myself but of course this person told them over and over that we weren't going to repo it and its their problem. To me that is just bad juju. So after the people left I turned and asked him if he knew that he just straight out lied to those people. He got all defensive and said that he didn't want to get in the middle of the people and this dealership. I told him we needed to protect the Credit Union. He just kinda blew me off and ignored me. Thats fine I told him and whatever he wants to do is fine. Well this certain car dealer also has an account with us so I checked to see the status of the account. It had been negative a large amount of money since April but the Credit Card and HELOC were never closed or blocked. So these people owe us a ton of money but the dishonest person working here didn't bother to do anything about it. This car dealer has been using his credit card for everything and anything he could...racking up the balance. Well come to find out this dishonest person and this car dealer have been talking and have a common hatred for an auto auction here in Utah. They have come buddy buddy and the guy working here always says that the dealer is going to pay off these loans. I know there is no way this guy can pay these loans and he is being investigated by the Utah District Attorney. So this dealership is going under hard core and the owner will be facing criminal charges. But yeah this guy working here doesn't want to get in the middle. Sometimes I really think he is scared of people and confrontation.
Its gets a little better at the fact that the person working here also owns his own used car dealership. Oh yeah he does most of his work for that here in this office. Pretty creative because it makes it look like he is working and he delegates out all the other work. My favorite part is has asked me to do all the attorney cases, small claims, charge offs, bankruptcy, calling on accounts, and much more. So really he doesn't do much as it is...I do and the other employees handle the rest. Thats pretty interesting...makes me wonder what he really does? I'm by no means perfect but I think you should always be honest in everything you do.
