Unusual places to
sleep
Have you ever had to sleep in a car, a park, or on
someone's floor or sofa? Here are a few stories of people who have slept or
lived in unusual places.
Tan Shen,
a 26 year old girl from China, lived in a Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC)
restaurant for a week. After her boyfriend left her, she didn't want to go home
because it reminded her of him. So, after having a meal at KFC, she decided to
stay there. Staff at the restaurant, which is open 24 hours a day, didn't
notice Tan at first because there were customers constantly coming and going.
However, after seven days, Tan decided she was sick of
the taste of chicken. So, she left the restaurant and went back to her parents'
house.
Mark Malkoff
lived in an IKEA shop in New Jersey for a week. Mark used the staff showers,
ate in the shop restaurant and slept on beds in the bedroom department.
"I'd often wake up from naps and there would be people staring at
me," he explained in an interview. Mark's stay at the store was part of a
marketing campaign by IKEA. Sales rose by 5.5% while Mark was there, and he
gave over 10 interviews a day with media companies from all over the world.
Eric Simons lived in the offices for two months. Eric
was originally there to work on his business idea. Eric received some money to
set up the site, and the opportunity to work on it over the summer. Things went
well, but eventually the money ran out and Eric had to leave. However, instead
of going, Eric decided to stay so he could finish the project. He worked until
midnight every night, then
went to sleep on one of the couches at the office. Around 7 am, he went down to
the gym for a workout and shower, and then back upstairs for a free breakfast
in the staff canteen before heading to his workstation. Although he was
eventually discovered and forced to leave, he was later given investment of
$50,000 to complete the site.
