Some people are blessed with the gift of being able to fall asleep anywhere. (Except in situations where “anywhere” includes places like a work meeting or the subway.) Other people are only able to drift off under a very specific set of conditions, like a made-bed with cotton sheets, the room temperature set to 68 degrees, a bedside fan pointing towards their feet, and a sleep mask.
One company is interested in learning more about how different environments affect a person’s sleep quality, and is looking to hire someone to do the sleeping. Here’s what to know and how to apply.
What the job entails
A website called Sleep Standards is currently seeking someone to spend five nights sleeping in different environments, including one night in a luxury 5-star resort. In addition to all their expenses being covered, the successful candidate will also earn $2,000 for five nights of work.
G/O Media may get a commission
You’re probably on board with the resort, but where will you be sleeping the other four nights? Per the job description:
If we choose you, we will send you to a new sleep environment every night. In each of those environments, we will carefully adjust several environmental factors that we think might improve your sleep quality. You can expect different settings in each place. Not to worry though, these settings will in no way harm your physical and mental health.
The successful candidate will then be required to write an honest report about their sleep experience each night, paying particular attention to how each of the adjustments made to their specific sleep environment affected their sleep quality. They’ll also have to rate each sleep environment on a scale from 1 to 10 (with 10 being the best possible place to sleep).
How to apply
The application itself is pretty straightforward, and can be found here. It’s all the usual stuff, plus indicating how many Facebook and Twitter followers you have, and a 100-200 word statement on why you’re the right person for the job. The application also involves making a 60-second video introducing yourself and making the case as to why you should be selected.
Applicants must be U.S. residents aged 18 or older. The deadline to apply is March 30, 2021.
Pexels – CC0 License Modern Japan was a luxury destination for wealthy Westerners who wanted to see a fundamentally different culture and country. Japan was out on a limb, doing its own thing, and not bothering to integrate itself into the American and European worlds. However, these luxury experiences are subsiding and Japan is returning…
It feels like there have been so many auctions of exquisite collections in the last few years. It makes me feel sad to see them be broken up but hopefully the furniture and objects end up going to good homes. Susan Gutfreund sold her Henri Samuel decorated duplex apartment at 843 Fifth Avenue last year and now some of the best pieces from it are for sale at Christie’s. I toured the preview today and it was interesting to see everything out in the open. You can see my photos from Christie’s in my Instagram Stories. Some of the items will be in the live auction and others already have bid in the online auction. I especially loved the green Winter Garden room when I visited the apartment for a party in 2018. I don’t think I’ll be able to afford anything but it’s fun to dream.

With so many designers it can be overwhelming to find good bras that make you feel sexy no matter your cup size. Claudette is our pick of the day for bras that give support, comfort and still make you look good. Using a softer wire in their bras, it is comfortable and doesn’t constrain. Claudette is never shy to use bold colors and their sheer Dessous mesh range is sheer up to a G cup. What’s special about the Dessous bra is that it has a 3-part design unlike most bras out there. As a lover of sheer bras myself I couldn’t resist getting one… or three of my own when I started working at Faire Frou Frou. I can proudly say that I adore my Claudette bras. They are fun to wear and give me the lift and support I need. Having been featured in magazines such as Cosmopolitan, Lingerie Insight and Vogue, it’s obvious we aren’t the only ones attracted to this exciting brand. With their Spring/ Summer ’15 line we fell in love a little bit more with all of the new enticing colors. As ownership has changed here at Faire Frou Frou we absolutely love how Claudette always adds a pop of excitement to our store. Be sure to check them out on our online store, Fairefroufrou.com or loveclaudette.com.
We can’t wait for more new arrivals!
