Working.
Two dark black men in black t-shirts and shorts resting on the hood of a black car near the payphone at a 7-11 on Hawthorne Boulevard. They each cradle a brown 40oz bottle of the King with labels peeled off (that should fool them). A middle-aged white electrician hangs up the payphone looking frustrated and tired. He looks over at the two with beers, shakes his head and sighs, “Man... enjoy those, fellas,” and he slumps towards his truck.
