I wouldn’t call it relatively lightly damaged from the photo. Doesn’t look like a fresh coat of paint and done. Maybe lightly damaged compared to war photos
Insurance money , cause the GM s* is running down the place & it ain’t making money … local rates gone from 199 .. to 499 .!! They have 2 HR over there as well that’s thieving the money very smart but I hope Julie & Joe come from Tampa & do a clean up ASAP
Did one of the staff did that so the company can get insurance money?
