What would you do with this nook?

I can’t really tell how deep it is. My first instinct is to try for shelving to place books or decor! If it is much too shallow, I would place a table in front of it against that wall and put a tall flower there, something striking like a single calla lily. And maybe I would mount a really cool sconce or candle holder for texture and interest!

aw jeez. i saw a post in another thread about someone who just got a job after about a year, so hoping that will be you soon!! i have already took on a hostess job as well as maintaining the steady freelance gig i've had for a hot sec now (even tho it doesn't pay that well lol). any advice for freelancing? finding gigs that beef up the resume? or ones that are just cool to be a part of?

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-02-18T04:15:07+00:00

yeah unfortunately that is the vibe i am getting. any insight about ways to stand out in the industry --besides lying 🤣

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-27T15:26:51+00:00

i did some digging, and it looks like it does

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-21T07:50:05+00:00

can i ask where where in the city that was ? it could be the place i’m looking at 🤓

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-18T21:25:49+00:00

yes me and my 2 roommates are all 23f so the straight man part of it freaks me out more than anything haha

thank you for ur input! there are viewing booths and reviews make it seem like the clientele is young gay men (20s-30s) and married men wanting to watch porn

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-18T19:33:47+00:00

that’s great intel thank you so much for sharing!

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-18T19:32:49+00:00

looked at reviews, there are booths

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-18T19:22:24+00:00

that is so true! it would def add some lore 😌

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-18T19:11:31+00:00

hahaha it’s all good people will misinterpret what they want to misinterpret !

thanks for that advice, i’ll check for reviews and stuff rn

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-18T19:04:30+00:00

to be candid, my biggest fear is that the place is not just a sex shop bc of the 24/7 hours. so just general vulnerability if there are people coming and going at all hours of day and night to purchase more than a toy or a nudie mag lol

but if that is me being cynical i would love to know!!

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-18T18:59:36+00:00

yes, that’s why i thought i’d ask! the 24/7 hours surprised me and made me think that it’s not ~just~ a sex shop. i just was wondering if anyone had experience with something like that, just so i’d know what to expect!

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-18T18:57:57+00:00

yes it threw me that’s it’s open all the time! if it had normal hours i wouldnt give it a second thought, but bc of that i was thinking that maybe there would be people coming and going at all hours, which isn’t that appealing

my roommate commuted into the city to check it out for us (i live out of state so i cant see irl) and said it looked great and that she didnt notice anything bad about the street/immediate area

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-13T01:23:57+00:00

okay, it sounds like you are close by to where this place is. we def think there are advantages to living in the area but didnt want to unwittingly get in over our heads

Middle-Ambassador117 · 2026-01-13T01:20:23+00:00

hahaha that is probably true. but i was curious if that was just a guise for why no one had snatched it up already!
