Urban hardware store near a college or some other progressive-ish institution.

Trends to attract people who are creative but also down to Earth, yah know guys who are in punk bands but also know how to drive a forklift, girls who write lesbian web comics but can also run a paint tinter. Only time I actually made close friends at work. Involves some physical activity but isn't that bad, especially if you know how to lift right. Plus driving the forklift is fun.
