I need to get this gym open.

So I talked to the director.

And I'm like, look, his name's Chris.

I'm like, Chris, you guys got this gym.

You say you don't use it.

Why don't you use it?

You have 30 kids that sit in this room all day and watch TV and play cards.

You don't get anything from playing cards for six months straight.

You get nothing.

You learn how to be really good at spades.

You don't learn any actual life skills because you're never going to play spades again once you leave here.

He's like, you know what, that makes sense.

Let me talk to some people.

And he basically tells me if from a week from now you don't get any trouble, I'll open that gym up and you and a few group of guys can go in there by yourselves.

So I'm like, that's great.

So I ended up behaving the rest of the week, getting this gym open.

What I very quickly realized is these staff here don't like me because I'm making things happen.

All these other kids, they're playing spades or getting in trouble.

That's what they're used to doing, right?

Now me, I'm opening this gym.
