When a person joins Sea Org, he/she is told that he is a part of the most ethical group of people. But this is a blatant lie -- theft is so widespread in Sea Org that at times it seems that you have entered the Thieves’ Paradise.
It was my first day in Sea Org after I graduated from EPF. I left my wallet with $15 in it on the desk. When I returned the wallet was still there, but it was empty. $15 is not a large sum of money, so I decided not to make a big deal out of it. I did not complain to my superiors; instead I developed a habit of not bringing money to the workplace. I could keep my money at home because I had a home, which is not the case of a vast majority of the Sea Org members.
My friend Edmund did not have a home, instead he was “camping” in Big Blue. The goddamn place looks like a prison camp with its bunk beds. Someone took all Edmund’s money, $450, from his briefcase which he kept in the dormitory. When Edmund complained to the Ethics Officer about the theft, he was ordered to keep the mouth shut. Apparently, the Officer did not want the other Sea Org members to know that things get stolen here. But we all already knew that (ha-ha!)
In some cases a Sea Org member knows who robbed him but there is nothing he can do about it -- the perpetuator had stolen the victim’s property right before the start of his overseas assignment. Even if the victim does not have money and jewelry in his possession, he will discover that his expensive clothing items are gone.
The Sea Org theft is so rampant that some staff members keep fancy locks with number combinations on their baggage. Guess what? -- those bags get stolen, too!
The Church itself is not immune to the theft -- many of its e-meters were stolen and sold to the new Scientologists.
I tried to steal an e-meter form a Hubbard office but failed because I did not have a plan. I just wanted to get into the office and swipe the electric beauty. But the Big Blue receptionists were watching my every move because they got suspicious when they saw me hanging in the lobby at 3: 00 AM.
My friend Patrick had a plan: He took a bucket and a mop and walked into a Hubbard office. While mopping the floor, he grabbed the e-meter and put it in the bucket (he was using a dry mop and his bucket was empty, of course, but no one was paying attention) Later he sold it for a half-price to a brand new Scientologist. His customer knew that this was a stolen device, but bought it anyway.
The Sales Org store got robbed when I was in Sea Org; I was told that this was not the first robbery. This was the insider job because the thieves knew exactly what they were looking for -- they ignored the e-meters , the Dianetics books and the Red Volumes because they knew that CoS investigators will be paying attention to the sales of these items. Instead, they took the golden OT pins because it is easy to sell this stuff to unscrupulous owners of jewelry stores.
Ricardo was working for Sales Org. He described to his friends, including myself, the scam that his superiors were running. They made an agreement with the e-meter factory personnel to underreport the number of e-meters produced each month. They were selling unreported devices to the Scientologists at 2/3 of the regular price.
Leslie was working for Supply Org. The Supply Org staff were delivering food to Big Blue; they also were stealing packaged goods (chocolate, soft drinks, etc) from the supply trucks and selling them to the local stores and even supermarkets.
I wonder what could be stolen for Gold Base. Hmmmm…
