Zip Thompson

Zip Thompson is a bumbling cashier at Burger Shot. He is role-played by RazorATX.

Bio
Zip's mother cursed him with his dumb name because of it was the pseudonym of a local news anchor she had the hots for. In grade school his name either got a "Wow, cool name" or the permanent and relentless mocking that comes with a kid finding something different about you to prey upon. More often it was the latter, and that only got worse as Zip's investment in fantasy and science-fiction outweighed his investment in school and local social groups. He grew up a digital native and had tons of friends on the internet that no one ever saw, and so judged him as a loner despite his endless DM conversations with people he gamed with. Zip just turned 18 and has shown up in Los Santos because he spent his tuition on BUTTcoin as a meme after being assured by Reddit it was going to the moon. When it didn't happen he panicked and pulled out the $5000 that was left. Without enough to pay tutition, he took the bus to Los Santos instead of the college and started to concoct a scheme to make some quick cash so he can get in to the college before next semester; hopefully before his parents realize what he's done.

Baptism by Fire
The first thing Zip did when he got to Los Santos was learn how to punch from Abigail, and it was all downhill from there. He tried to get a job at the Digital Den, but was immediately robbed by one of the other job applicants and lost his phone. Down on his luck, he was convinced to try weed for the first time by Bogg Dann in the empty Burger Shot, where Dean the owner hired him on the spot because customers were coming in and nobody was working. He got the hang of the register fast and was told to only work the register, never cook.

Burger Shot
Zip works odd shift times at Burger Shot, but is usually at the register when he does. He proposed a plan to Kevin Whipaloo that they start conducting surveys and data analysis. He claimed he was doing this to increase business, and maybe become Burger Shot's accountant. Zip created a survey for Burger Shot and began creating graphs with many metrics.
