Coffee Shop Waiting

Chad wandered in to a nearby coffee place, the whole sign up process didn't seem very quick, so he might as well check on things while he waited.
A large mug of steaming coffee at his side, he jacked into the net.

"I'll be right back... " Chad said to the waitress with a handful of money before sprinting out the door.

15 minutes later, Chad returned breathing heavily.

'Alright...' he thought, 'lets do this, finally'

4 Hours later... Chad woke up, startled by Splitman's screaming
"You finally up!? I've been done for like half an hour...." The tiny Navi yelled through the PET
"Whugh!? MMMm? Uh, ok fine, what now?" Chad asked in a daze. He had no idea why nobody had woken him up...

He took a moment to compose himself, ordered some coffee, and set off to where his upgrade was.
