Yeah it was a great job. Made 5% of the bail as profit and did alot of 100,000 bonds and up to 1 mil bonds. It is not fun though when they skip and you have to do the recovery work on them. The good thing about that is when you catch a person that skipped on the bail, you make an additional 5% . Then you just have to drop them off at the county jail in the r and d and get them back in the system.
