I worked in a small inner-city video rental shop during the dying days of video. It had a staff of 4-5 amazing characters - We ate popcorn, drank vodka, watched hundreds of random movies (black spine chosen at random from the back of course).

We would stay after hours, well into the night, with film nerds and random people with nowhere else to go. Our boss, the manager of the branch was a nuclear physicist turned asylum seeker - who had our backs, brought us take outs and was an all around gent.

This was during college for me. I had some great, interesting, jobs afterwards both in tech and other random things. But I think this will always be my favorite. Those I keep in touch with seem to agree.
