One of the maintenance guys. He called me last week acting kind of panicky, saying it was an emergency and he needed me rent him a room that night. He explained that it wasn't for him, but someone he knows desperately needed a place for the night.

I knew we weren't supposed to rent to locals, but sometimes employees do get to stay here if they need a place. That's what he wanted to do, get the room with his employee status and just use it for them instead. I reluctantly agreed, but regretted it immediately when they arrived.

Apparently from their discussion at the desk there was some kind of domestic disturbance they were trying avoid. So I figured trouble would likely follow, and it did but in a different way than I imagined.

After my shift ended the maintenance guy called and said he was coming in. My co-worker told him to stay home, but he showed up anyway and used his maintenance key to access their room and supposedly sleep with her? Which I guess is what caused the domestic issue to begin with since this girl was cheating.

He got fired for it yesterday and I just learned it was because I rented him that room. I tried explaining to my manager that it was my fault and my decision to rent it to him, but she just kept saying they already knew all the details and that it's not my fault and that I'm not in trouble. I told her I just wanted to accept responsibility for my part, but that just kind of got dismissed as a non-issue.

Ugh... If only I had a spine and had told him no like I was supposed to. Or a brain and thought to call my manager first.
