Heading into the candy store, decorated with bright colors all around and filled to the brim with a wide variety of sweets, you find yourself face-to-face with a kind hippo behind the counter. He's incredibly nice but incredibly fat - even for his species, often known for their heft, he sticks out like a sore thumb. Easily more than three times your width, the hippo is surprisingly delighted after you make your initial pitch. "I've been looking for a reason to move that cooler I bought to the front of the store, and offering some cold drinks will be a great way to make some money off of it!", he says.
Five minutes later, you've made the easiest sale of your life, and not a half bad one too. No matter how much of a jackass your boss tries to be, your next paycheck will be a bit heftier, guaranteed. As a token of goodwill, you agree to help the hippo move his cooler from the back room - it had been plugged in way in the back, still with some of the wrappers fastened - and slide it into place next to the cash register.
In thanks, the hippo catches you off-guard with one of the more generous offers you've heard in a while.
