http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/story?section=news/local&id=7512545guy worked for Ruckus for 3 years. I fired him on suspicion of stealing last April. Throughout his tenure at Ruckus, it was common for our drawer(s) to be $5, 10, 20 short pretty often. We were also broken into last July, and whoever it was went directly to where our auxiliary cash box was, and nowhere else.Good riddance.more detailed writeup at http://www.wral.com[Edited on June 22, 2010 at 10:57 AM.

^^yes. I didn't hire him. He was there before I got there. Bit of a charity case, etc.don't worry, he wasn't taking orders, or dealing with customers very much.[Edited on June 22, 2010 at 10:59 AM. Reason : dfadaaaa]

I bartended and traveled Europe with this guy:http://www.postandcourier.com/news/2009/sep/29/stolen-painting-recovered/Although not quite as bad as bank robberies, it was quite the talk of the town for a while.

oh I knew full well of his situation--child support, back child support, 2 newborn children with a crazy crackhead woman. he was constantly borrowing money from employees. He also was reported by acquaintances that he smoked crack all the time. He often borrowed my car, and the last time he did, I rightfully accused him of taking it to buy drugs. He was fired the following week for stealing money from a deposit in my truck. It's weird, over the past 6 months, he's been coming in and paying people back. he told us he got a job at UPS. he'd also been coming into Ruckus about once per week over the past several months, having a drink or two. he's been in prison before, in VA. 8 years, I think...armed robbery. the disappearing bits of money could've been attributed to several things, it just took a while to realize that it usually happened during one of his shifts.He'd always borrow money to "buy pampers". he clearly had the shittinest babies on the planet.^strangely enough, we all kinda called that he'd be in jail for something soon after. really never thought it would be for robbing banks. I still can't believe it.[Edited on June 22, 2010 at 1:40 PM. Reason : dfasdass]

the mync.com writeup says they received several tip-offs. I guarantee his baby's mama called it in for the 15k.

why the fuck would ruckus hire a guy with a felony record
6/22/2010 4:40:22 PM
so their employees can be as bad as their pizza
6/22/2010 4:41:23 PM
couldn't tell ya. i know i wouldn't. but, if i can speak for someone else, i'm sure it was to give them a second chance.^aawwww. that's adorable.[Edited on June 22, 2010 at 4:43 PM. Reason : dsfads]

dude owes me some monies too. and i gave him a tv once...guy could clean the shit out of a car though.
6/22/2010 5:05:24 PM
now y'all can say you know a bank robber!
6/22/2010 5:06:21 PM
aint that some shitI am glad he did not rob you guys. A guy I worked with as a teenager turned around and robbed his old work at knifepoint 2 days after being fired....he got fucked when his accomplice accidentally uttered his real name during the robbery. He got caught, went to prison, and was then deported after completion of his sentence. ]
6/22/2010 5:09:36 PM
You can bet your ass that you were 1 argument away from being robbed with a record like that
6/22/2010 5:13:32 PM
i let the guy detail my car 3 or 4 times and he never stole a thing from me.
6/22/2010 5:14:30 PM
thats because you took all the valuable stuff out
6/22/2010 5:16:57 PM
i don't have anything of value. ]
6/22/2010 5:18:05 PM
I'm fairly certain he's the one who broke in last July. Rock through the front door, money box gone. and a bottle of Jack.
6/22/2010 5:29:07 PM
why was he stealing 5,10, and 20 dollars from a register if he was robbing banks on the side?
6/22/2010 5:32:13 PM
he wasn't robbing banks then. he was, i suppose, trying to be as upstanding as possible. he didn't start robbing banks until a few months after i fired him. kinda saw it coming (not banks, per se).

i think the correct spelling is "brush his teef"
6/22/2010 5:38:13 PM
this dude didn't practice hygiene. except for maybe wearing cologne.as the news reports offer, his teeth are indeed "misshapen" to say the least.
6/22/2010 5:38:26 PM
That dude was shady as shit. Kevin always wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, until his phone was stolen while James was working.
6/22/2010 5:39:28 PM
ha I remember that. I had just gotten back to Ruckus, bout November of '07.

6/22/2010 6:06:32 PM

Forgery? That second guy has six counts of heroin trafficking. That could be federal shit and he's probably a flight risk on top of that. ]
