Unfortunately, that's not the case. I worked for 2 other major rental companies after ERAC, and 90% of it is the same. Sure, different companies have different reports, and slightly different ways administratively, but you could take any ERAC rep and teach them another company's model in a few days. Just like ERAC employees being promoted to different branches, each branch has it's own unique flavor that takes some getting used to. So in that respect, its no different. In fact, if there was one thing, the most challenging thing is learning each company's computer system. Especially, in years past when it was the equivalent of the green screen, in what seemed like a different "language". ERAC employees can remember initially getting used to the AA commands. Nowadays, any computer that is not windows based seems to be unnecessarily overly complicated. I think I still get RALPH nightmares. Ugh!
