How much on average would it cost to customize your closets and/or office? I'm thinking of customizing a walk-in closet and a Den with a small work area/office and media. It wouldn't be a very large job since the rooms are not huge. I would honestly say just about your average space for a home. I am looking into closetfactory.com. Has anyone used them? I just need an idea on costs for such a project? I'm hoping under $1000 per room. Any suggestions are welcomed. I'm such a newbie to all of this home stuff. It's my first home!
Is a bedroom with no closet "legally" considered an office in real estate terms? Hello, I'm thinking about expanding the closet in my master bedroom by opening the wall to the closet on the other side of the wall. The closet on the other side currently belongs to that bedroom. A friend told me that a bedroom without a closet is considered an "office" in real estate terms. Is this accurate? I've been in several homes that don't have closets in some bedrooms.
Is it a good idea to secretly live in the pantry from my office? I want to move out of my parents' house so bad! ! I've been working as an English, Spanish, French, and Japanese teacher since I was 18. I'm 25, and for the last 3 years, I've actually started making more money translating. I rented a large apartment, bought deskchairs, whiteboards, and it's now my school. I set up my office to do my translation work. I've had the place for 3 months, I haven't been able to gather enough people to teach groups of people, but people take me more seriously once they see the office and classrooms, so I get more translation work and students for private tutoring. I can't afforrd to rent another place for me to live, or to pay for another phone and internet conexion. It would look unprofessional to live at my school/office. But if I put my bed in the pantry, and keep my clothes in the closet from my office. Eat out everyday like I always do. No one has to know. Is it a good idea to secretly live in the pantry from my office?

Why would using skeletons in an office psychopath's closet to encourage them to do better quality work be .. .. blackmail ? Your typical office psychopath in a safety-critical software position has done things like : swap Left and Right controls for a robot, perhaps a torpedo, and issued the doctored software perhaps with advice to watch how it works at sea. doctored algorithms, good heavens, perhaps for surface to air missile software and test software, and "released" the doctored software. Why would it be blackmail to indicate that this is part of their track record and that you expect improvement. To dlin - terrific. thanks.
Decorating ideas for an office? i"m 18 and I just got permission from my parents to redo an old unused closet into an office for me. It's a very small closet, just big enough for me to put a tiny table and chair in with a little bit of extra room. I'm very creative. I like to sew, draw, paint, and other stuf like that. But most of all I really like photography. I would really like to frame a lot of my black and white pictures on the wall. So I want a color pallette that is very inspiring, that would bring out the creative side of me, but it also has to go well with the black and white photos I'm going to put up. So if you have any color ideas, I would appreciate the input. I'm opewn to anything from calming and relaxing to funky and crazy. If you know of any good websites that would show some pictures of different color palleattes for something like this I would really like to see pictures, but ideas are still great too! it's a small space, so anything that will make it seem more spacious is great!
Any Closets by Design Reviews? I'm hoping to get some feedback about Closets by Design - maybe more specifically in the DFW area. I keep thinking about considering them for home office, but I can't stand when a company requires you to meet with a "consultant" just to get pricing. I don't want to waste time on a speech about something I don't think is budget-friendly. Anyone know anything about them? Whether they cost in the hundreds or if its thousands? I really do like the model offices they show.
How do I make my office seem bigger or any office decorating tips in general? I live in an apartment and I'm in the mood for some redecorating, but I can't paint the walls. I want to redecorate my office but the room is shaped oddly and it bothers me...It has five smaller walls instead of four walls and one wall is completely taken up by closet doors. Anything to make the room seem bigger? Or any other good home office decorating tips? I just can't paint...it's in the lease. The walls are like antique white. I can stick all the holes in the wall I want to hang things...Just no paint.
How do you connect a computer to an office sound system? We are leasing a new office that is wired for sound. Each room already has built in ceiling speakers. There is a little closet with a bunch of colored wires where we are supposed to connect our stereo components. What equipment do I need to play music from my computer (via Pandora or other internet radio, or itunes) through this system? Can I connect my computer through a receiver? What is a good one to purchase? Thanks!
Have you used skeletons in the office psychopath's closet to encourage them to behave ? typical skeletons might be threw out co-workers' printout ousted immediate boss doctored an authenticated model program removed safety caveats on a surface to air missile system swapped left and right controls on a torpedo system and sent it to sea with instructions to watch for anything peculiar posted staff members A and B to a supplier's integration team.

I'm thinking of a career change. Would you pay for organization in your life? I am doing research on becoming a professional organizer. My question is: would you pay someone to organize for you? It could be your office, closets, garage, bills, coupons, etc. This is all so interesting to me and I think I would be great at it. I'm thinking that I am getting laid off in about 6 months from my current job, so I am looking for something I really like and can do for the rest of my life. Thanks for your imput and honest opinions.

How much does an exterminator cost in nyc? I live in brooklyn and my roomate and I just found out we have bed bugs. It's not a huge problem yet (we've only seen one, but we have a few bites) but we want to stop the bugs before they get worse. We know we're supposed to bag all laundry/fabrics in the house and wash them, but most things I've researched say that an exterminator is the only way to really get rid of the bugs. Does anyone know how much this would cost us (small apartment: living room, bedroom, and small office/closet) in brooklyn/nyc area? Does anyone have any recommendations (of exterminators or an effective way to do it yourself?) Thankyou! I mean a rought estimate of what it might cost (doesn't need to be an exact amount....). Or, if anyone out there has hired exterminators for bedbugs, how much did it cost you?
How do you arrange home office furniture? I have a square room with large windows on the south wall, a smaller window on the east wall, a closet on the north wall, and an empty east wall. I have a large bookcase, a small cabinet, and two desks I am trying to arrange to be practical but not overwhelm and crowd the room, especially since it's all dark wood furniture. I've tried angling some of the pieces, separating the desks, putting the desks together to increase my workspace . . . I'm just confusing myself? Any suggestions? And please don't suggest those furniture arranging programs, I'd really just like to hear people's actual visions for arranging the furniture. Thank you!
Is it time to audit EVERYONE in office for "errors" in their taxes? As much trouble as it has been getting these people confirmed due to tax "errors" and "misunderstandings" do you think this is widespread among both parties and most people in Washington? Is this one of closets we need to clean out? Ron R, I find it interesting that you think these errors are all going to be found exclusively on the Dem side.
What the worst thing your ever have done in the office? I had sex with my boss in a closet. No lie! I have also stole a few things here and there- mostly rejected product but once I help a friend steal a small painting off the wall. Ahhh... it was like 10 years ago... I use to be a bad girl. I have mend my ways.
how can i fire my business partner? I am in a 50/50 S corp partnership...I have found pot and other substances in an office closet, which he admitted to. he has taken items out of the office and sold them for his own gain. His sales have dropped tremendously, does not show up very often and is just plain lazy. I have talked to him about this, but he just shrugs his shoulders and says he will pick up the pace, which has not happened. Is there anything that can be done? or do I just have to do deal with it in order to keep the coming growing? Thanks.
I recently moved to a new office and I was working late, I swear that I saw something that looked like a human figure walk into the conference room by my office. The side of the building where my office is was empty at the time. I checked in the conference room and the utility closet by the conference room and it was empty. There was no way that anybody could have gotten out because its a dead end and to leave they would have come passed my office. Can anyone tell me if this was a real ghost and who it was? Wouldn't a workaholic person also be a workaholic spirit. By human figure (I meant it wasn't an orb or a cloud) It just looked like a person.
If a man you worked with made this comment to you ? While you were in a small office closet getting some supplies, "If I attacked you in here no one could hear you?" then walked away like nothing. What would you do? what would you think? Is he Crazy? should I be scared?
making room in small living area (closet and office)? I'm thinking about moving in with my boyfriend and right now trying to brainstorm ways to create space for my clothes. We would be sharing his bedroom, but it does not have a closet. As of right now, he is using those pop-up closets that have plastic covers on them to protect his clothes. Being that he is a guy, he only needs one...on the other hand, my built in closet in home is very stuffed. I need a way to see my clothes easily and have them stay organized. I like to organize my tank shirts, dresses, jeans, etc. If I buy one of those closets, I think it will make the room look like a storaage room and tacky. The other storage issue I thought about was I have a desktop computer and he has a small desk...I do not know the best way to make room for a computer because the desk is very narrow, but works for his small laptop. Any ideas would be fantastic! If you have any websites with decorating ideas or storage units, that would be fantastic! Trying to visualize it. He wants to start decorating the room, but we are new at all this, so ideas would be ver appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Has there ever been a "clean" politician in public office? I mean someone whom you just couldn't find any shady business dealings, sex scandals, or tax evasion problems in his/her life. Why does it seem like every politician has skeletons in their closet? How hard could it be to stay out of trouble? I have lived my life honestly, never stolen or hurt anyone, nor cheated on a significant other. It's really not that hard...
Need help organizing a home office? Help! My girlfriend works out of home. We have home office that also doubles as a guest bedroom. We could use some help organizing this room (and perhaps another). Could anyone suggest a a service to help us get organized? I just stumbled upon California Closets (www.CalClosets.com) which might work, but I'd love to find some other options in Santa Monica. Thanks!
Home Office -Can I take deduction? I really need Help? I was able to open a little giftshop with the help of my parents in 2001. A year later I was accepted at a local college (fine art major), so I closed the giftshop& stored everything in our home office & its closet. Over the last 5 years period, I sold some of my inventory on ebay (when time allowed) mostly (99%) at loss. Now 5 years later I just learned that I may have been able to deduct expenses for the business use of my home without meeting the exclusive use test. I never reported any business income or loss for the prior years. My question is do I qualify for the business use of home deduction? If so, if I claim the deduction this year all of sudden, would it make the IRS examine me? Should I report any income/loss from EBay sales? If I have income, am I subject to self employment tax? How do I pay SE tax? Wow, so many questions. Anybody takes time & answers my question thanking you in advance. Please just help me to do my tax things legally with good faith. My inventories are high end cashmere clothing items and oil paintings. The reason I sold them at loss because my initial costs were high (I was young/foolish and didn't make do any marketing research). Also I'm married in 2007 and my hubby makes about 80k, so I am trying to be careful, because the IRS might think I am abusing the situation (business loss and home office use) even the whole situation is true.

Do you the think the Republicans in office secretly want Obama to succeeded? You know since half of them that hold an office or closeted homosexuals, but they must vote against gay rights. Maybe they secretly hope Obama will get things done for the gay community would help them to be able to come out and feel protected? I didn't say gay marriage b/c I know he is against that I said PROTECTED. Next time you read something take the time to pay attention to what it says that will save you from looking like an incompetent asshole. :D Too bad Frued is dead :(. There are a lot of secrets. Lowlife? Why must we project our perceptions of ones self on to others?

Who here would run for office if they could? Might seem like a dumb question but think about it. Would you be willing to endure the scrutiny into your public life? I wonder what kind of dirt they would dig up on me. It always bothers me what a lame class of choices we are getting in each election. I always get the feeling that there are much better choices out there- better leaders0 but they are afraid to run because of a skeleton or two in their closet.
Could I still run for public office one day? (skeleton in closet)? I am a college student that is interested in running for public office one day. I am going to law school in a couple years and eventually I would like to run for public positions such as a state representative. However, I have a little "skelton" in my closet. When I was a teenager, I was incredibly naive (Spare me the lecture. I know it was stupid.) and I sent a naked picture of myself to a creep online. This creep still sends me messages (5 years later) but I ignore him. Up until recently, he only knew my first name, which is incredibly common. However, he recently learned my last name. He told me that he searched all the people with my first name from my college on Facebook and eventually recognized me from my profile picture. Now he knows my first and last name. What would happen if I did win a public position? If he gave the pictures to the media would I be ruined? Could I keep them sealed because they would be considered child porn? Am I being too paranoid about this? Should I continue to follow my dreams and ignore this for now? I was thinking if I were married at the time, I could just take my husband's name and change my hair color. I would have aged a lot so perhaps he would not realize it was the same person. Again, am I being to paranoid? I tend to worry a lot.
Any tips on creating a decoupage desktop? I am turning a long closet into an office with a long workspace along one of the walls. To do this, I will be cutting a piece of plywood to size and using a filing cabinet on each side for legs. I would like to decoupage the desktop using attractive wrapping paper to cover the entire surface. I was able to find this reference to decoupaging a counter top: http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/hk_faucets_fixtures/article/0,2037,DIY_13943_2276280,00.html But I want to make sure this method will work for me. Can I just use Elmer's or wood glue to fasten the wrapping paper before applying the epoxy? Is there a difference between the self leveling expoxy mentioned here and standard decoupage goop from the craft store? Will using wrapping paper pose any special challenges (since it will probably be one long piece instead of little ones)? Does the plywood need to be primed first? Will I need to apply some sort of varnish? So many questions! I would really appreciate your help! I have Mod Podge at home...can I use that to stick the paper down and then go back over it with the same stuff to finish it?
Office Romance - When to come out of the closet? Hi guys. I have a question... My bf and I met at work a year and a half ago. I no longer work at our old workplace anymore but he still does. Rumours about us dating were circulating during the time I was there but we never confirmed anything and kept things secret to maintain professionalism. I left the place months ago and we're pretty serious. We've met and spent time with each others folks, friends and we always spend time with each other every weekend and always call throughout the day. I can tell he's starting to feel insecure because he doesn't see me everyday anymore and due to the nature of my new job, I made some new friends and go to out dancing and to parties more often without him. He says that he feels left out sometimes and would like to meet my new clubbing buddies especially the guys - I guess to make his presence known. I also feel a little insecure because he's always been a flirty touchy-feely guy even before we started dating. There's currently a girl who sometimes drives him home cause they live close to each other who I know is a flirt because when I still worked there, she asked me if one of our male coworkers had a gf and even after she knew he did, she was still intent on stealing him from her - she failed though. Also, we used to have another ex-coworker who used to hit on him who he'd flirt with as well before (even though we were already together at the time) who still visits our old workplace on ocassion so chances are they'd still bump into each other while I'm not around. I'd really feel a lot better if we made our relationship public or if he at least made it clear that he has a gf. Our family and friends know, but not the people there. Should we come out of the closet? We can't possibly keep this a secret forever if we're serious. How would you suggest we go about this? Please share your input. Thanks.
