That's Charlie. Bear in mind the camera adds ten pounds of blur.
Charlie: He does pretty much any cafeteria job, and has worked there since
my second year (I think...maybe third). He's a lot like Ken
in a lot of ways, except for the adoring me part. He's not so big on me, though
he's less opposed to me than he used to be.
Charlie's also been my RA since my third
year, which is where the less-than-loving attitude towards me began. He was doing
the mandatory beginning of the year rules speech to our suite, and mentioned that
there were no toaster ovens, hot plates, open flame, or candles allowed. He looked
over at a table in the common room and said "Oh, there's a toaster oven. Oh, and
a hot plate. Oh, and a candle," to which I replied "yeah, and the coffee pot shoots
a flame from the top." Clearly a joke, but he didn't get it. "Really?" "No, I'm
making fun of you." That set him a little against me, but he's getting over that.
Having watched me work, he's starting to see what it would be nice for management
to see: I'm REALLY good at what I do.
Anyway, we're on pretty neutral terms right now and he rarely even checks in on our
suite anymore, so everything's peachy keen.
