Most likely. I spent about a month on my own when the old LT went on holiday to Indonesia. And I’ve never caused intentional property damage and don’t smoke (they’d be worried about the bond) But they’re paying a lot of money for the 24/7 workers just for the other kid, I would’ve thought it’d have been cheaper to move him back to a Resi (which does also have 24/7 staffing, but is subsided by 3 other kids)

I was told that the regional manager is back (he was away and his replacement was a dick and didn’t raise his concerns about the new kid being placed here) and he’s not happy with the situation and agreed to represent the agency and push for the new kid to be moved out (they’re the ones paying for the workers, which ultimately comes from their profit margin, so they’re incentivised to move a lower maintenance person in anyway).

The program manager seems to think he will be moved out after I, the old LT and 2 people from my care team all wrote letters about the situation. But there’s no timeframe for that, could be a few days, or it could be a few weeks. But probably not more than a month if the department agrees he’s not suitable for lead tenant.
