Then being an account cordinator handling the vehicle inventory for different banks. Making sure all vehicle inspections were done and vehicles that need bodywork or mechanical work that they were done and ready for sale. Then went back to the inspections department to do training on new inspectors and old inspectors working with them on the ways of finding damages on vehicles. Plus doing the frame verification on the Arbitration cars.
