I’ve mentioned there are “characters” here. One was recently fired. Royce was early 20’s. Already divorced w/ 2 kids, a restraining order & could only see them “with supervision.” My impression: lazy, sloppy fat, only interested in video games & drawing. We had an “art night” early on. Some of my supplies were missing, so I avoided another. And Royce.
I’d not seen him so asked and got an earful! Ryan (the dorm manager) gave me details. Royce had been warned about stealing more than once. Initially, the company was just going to fire him and have the rangers escort him from the park. But Royce started accusing others of taking specific items and of drugs—all of which were found in his room.
Among other drugs was a quantity of crystal meth. So Royce was arrested. Ryan had to clean the room. All the clothes smelled so badly, Ryan just threw them all out. Maybe Royce was stealing new clothes rather than wash them in the free washers and dryers downstairs. Even the soap is free!
Ryan said there was food everywhere!—drawers, under the bed, closet, piled on the floor. All of which was tossed. Royce was quite a large guy and ate enormous meals every day. It’s hard to imagine why he felt he needed so much food. Ryan has been airing out the room for days, but it still stinks.
Let’s hope this is rock bottom for Royce. But I doubt it.
