As he steps in, classical music and the boss welcoming him with a glass of cold champagne.

A friendly chat while Oompa-Loompas unload his car, taking the parcels in.

Like a revolving floor, before he gets it's a mess, it turns and all shiny stuff and smiles just for him...
1300$ <------- that's huuuuge! Hope Mr. Shack is not paying in nickels Smile
