Doze Off
Eat a Scooby snack and take disco nap
Because I’m shopping at Sears, cause I don’t buy at the Gap
—Alright Hear This, Beastie Boys
You know when you’re fading off at work because you’re tired? If you’re like me, you don’t have any safe, comfortable place to go to take a disco nap so you can power through the rest of your day.
If you work in downtown SF like me, now you do.
My friend (and former coworker) Brandon quit his job and launched his own business here in San Francisco called Doze.
How it works:
- book a sleeping pod
- put on a pair of Bose, noise-cancelling headphones (or use your own)
- recline to your desired position
- close your weary eyes and recharge
- pay what you want (for the Basic level)
When your time is up, the interior of the pod ‘dome’ slowly glows brighter and brighter and returns you to an upright position. I test drove one myself and it was great.
Oh, and the first time is free.
I’m really proud of Brandon because he did this all on his own without any investors or backers. It all came out of his own pocket. That takes balls. I also love that he’s he solving a problem he’s had himself. Those are always make the best projects and businesses.
So check it out.
