"We are not selling essential items or needs. We are lucky to receive 1 call a day in relation to sales requests and those are for a tv, game system, or couch. In a conference call it was stated we are open for the purpose if collecting our money owed. To call our customers for payments. We are required to pick up and return used merchandise. People couching, sitting, body fluids and anything else left in these items are subjecting us and our family's to Covid 19 and other issues. The company dont care. We are here to collect $ from payments owed. While our upper management is required to work from home and NOT allowed to travel even to store locations our of fear and precaution due to Covid 19.This company needs stopped because they do not care about the staff and putting us in unsafe situations soley ti collect money. Which is pissing our customers off because all there creditors are giving them a break and working with them but we are not. We are calling them 2 times a day and calling g their references and family members to try and collect payment. We are bothering references. Everyone needs to stay home and worry about their health. Not the $ they owe ti a creditor. But I'm forced to be a bully to collect money when I want to be home keeping my family and myself safe. We can. It social distance with our jobs. Our show tools are closed but we are going out to customers cars for payments. We are touching, carrying, breathing in used customer products they are returning. No way to clean, disinfect, and sanitize before touching. We are risking our lives and the lives of our loved ones so my company can collect their monthly revenue. That was stated on a conference call today, we are only here to collect monthly revenue.Speaking for many Aaron's employees..... please help!" - Jarred Bowman
