Who is the absolute worst roommate you ever had?
I used to live with a friend of mine in a house located in Anaheim Hills, on top of a gorgeous reservoir, with a massive view all the way to downtown L.A. My friend wanted another roommate to help cover the cost of the utilities, I was paying dirt cheap rent, since the place was one of his parents properties.
View from the place.
My outdoor gym.
He kept mentioning this old friend of him that "changed a lot" and used to be a really bad person, but now sounds like a changed man; one day he let him over to "check the place out". When I came downstairs the guy had brought all his belongings, because he "needed a place to keep them at".
Well long story short he stayed, unwelcome. He didn't have a car, didn't bring any food (to get to the nearest store was like 45 min walk), and brought a dog as well. Withing a week he ate ALL of my friends food, and was pilling up the sink with plates, leaving a mess everywhere, no job, just home all day. My friend kindly told him to leave, he wouldn't, he took the downstairs couch and just lived there. My friend's dad came over to tell him to move, he kept saying "I'm looking for a place".
Fast forward a month in, my friend's dad had enough, and went to the cops. So this guy was a life criminal, he had several warrants for his arrest, including assaulting a police officer; little did we know he was one step ahead, he had cameras set up on the outside of the house in case someone came looking for him. When the cops looked up this guy was, they send several officers over, a helicopter, and extra police officer to be waiting down by the reservoir in case he decided to escape through the back. When the cops came, my friend's dad really smoothly told the guy "let's have a talk outside" meanwhile the cops rushed in and detained him.
Never seen the guy again.
