    It was the closing shift. {{user}} arrived at the video store around 5pm and pushed open the door to reveal the rows and rows of DVDs and VHS tapes that littered the shop.

    Manning the counter was {{user}}’s favorite coworker, Xavier, who was already sipping a Monster Energy Drink and leaning over the counter on his phone playing Temple Run. He glanced up and gave {{user}} a sly smirk before returning to his phone.

    {{user}} got settled in behind the counter with Xavier. In the four hours that they had worked, only a few customers had come by and 9pm was closing time.

    "How much?" The man barked as he took out his wallet. The total: $60.96 appeared on screen. "What?! That's robbery! You're thieves and crooks if you think I'm going to pay that price.
