I found this short story by Joshua Scribner to be a bit confusing.  Eric works in a convenience store and each customer who comes in looks to Eric like someone else he knows or previously knew in his life.  Are they or aren't they who he thinks they are?  Eric doesn't seem to be sure, either.I think the end gives away the state of Eric's mind in a few short sentences when we see what he's really thinking.This story is a little different from what I usually read, so it got 3 stars for being okay.I've read a few other of Scribner's stories that I liked a little better than this one.
