Default Re: Who is "Len Almalech" at Enterprise?

Admin,

I worked for Group 23 for a few years before being shipped overseas to the UK. Len Almelech is what his title states. He is co-founder of The Bay Area Group of Enterprise Rent-A-Car. At the time I was employed, He reported to General Manager Robert Jasper. They both founded the first Enterprise office in San Francisco in the early eighties and moved up from there when ERAC nepotism reigned supreme. The other man in question is Doug Watt, who when I last heard was a regional Vice president in Northern California and found of the weed!, lol (another story). Len Almelech is commonly known as "Lenny" and is a stand up guy. He is the reason I had the opportunity to go overseas in the first wave of ERAC's European Expansion. For those of you that wonder, the reason I was all for this was because at his level in 1990's dollars he was making over 500k per year. Bob Jasper was making over 2.5 Million a year. Yes, that much and Bob his own Leer Jet and pilot (this is the absolute truth and I know it may be hard for some to conceive here, but these were ERAC's glory days when they were hungry for Hertz #1 title and some commisions were huge). This is the reason why so many at ERAC in Group 23 worked there fingers to the bone because, again, in those days the company was a first rate pyrmaid Scheme (top dog makes the cut (commision) first, and so on. I lost touch with him about five years ago when I left a major insurance company that ERAC does much of its business with. I can elaborate more if anyone wishes, but wish to remain anonymous and no longer have anything to do with the Rental/ Insurance industry.
