What would you do if you had to leave Adult?
 

If you were finished by day's end for whatever reason, what would you do? If you could no longer run your sites, be a sale's person, shoot content, be content, sell traffic...what would you do in the mainstream?

Would you apply for eCommerce positions in the mainstream and if so, would you hide / fudge your background?

Obviously, some of the real big players have strategically diversified into the mainstream, but for many people, they either haven't or would still need to supplement income with a mainstream job.

i'd stalk Kicker's GF?

i would come back

I would suck my own dick

this....

I did leave adult... and I'm doing THIS -->

:glugglug

Build up a own gym.

Import and export, or go trade stocks.

real estate with the wife. :2 cents:

If I can develop a limp or a lisp, I could be a greeter at Walmart.

I have plans on leaving adult but if it did happen
well then I would have to devote my time to my mainstream sites and smoke more weed to help keep me from getting bored and to dull the pain.

:1orglaugh

I'd start a yoga studio, and continue with my health biz that I have currently

Does the unemployement line accept out of work adult webmasters. LMAO

Be a lawyer

I've always had a fantasy of playing with someone who was REALLY flexible. . .:winkwink:

Maybe that's why I like Cirque de Soleil so much!

There's plenty of stuff to do out there...

I've always wondered what I put on a resume for the last several years if I went back into the corporate world. I can skirt the issue "Self employed internet advertising" like I do with some of my family members :winkwink: but someone who really wanted to delve would need more info.

My plan is to buy and sell land in my area in addition to adult so HOPEFULLY I would still be covered, but that fear of drafting a resume always lurks in the back of my tiny brain. :eek7

I would probably be a mechanic.

SEO for mainstream. Everyone needs SE traffic.
WG

continue my full-time, mainstream marketing job. invest in real-estate. plant lots of trees. develop my photography hobby. travel the world.

I'd jerk off until I died from exhaustion, forget working!

"Had to"?

Definatly start filing law suits.

i would either

a. kill myself
or
b. join the USAF

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."-Thoreau

....so that's what i want to do, except exchange the word "woods" with Baja Mexico and add something about surfing every day, fishing and sending mainstream mail marketing via an international third party distributor.:thumbsup

my life wouldn't change too much, I bartend at night so, I'd just do alot more of that and then find a day job in e-comm...:)

Go fishing. :thumbsup

I'd go back to working on wormhole development using quantum mechanics and string theory to initiate a stable singularity in the space-time continuum.

ditto.

Yeah, I'm going to that too, but only on the weekends. :)

I am open best tuning shop for sport cars. I like this :)

There's a whole world of things to do besides Adult

Have been a lawyer before, but prefer adult biz. The girls at shootings are much more cuties as clients were before.

Peaches you nailed it. That is the major issue. Like WiredGuy said, everyone needs SEO so likely he could just transition right over to the mainstream.

But here is a good example of what I am talking about. When I left my last marketing job, I was making money from other promotions and living, well, good. But, I got that itch to go back to work again and just pull the old workaholic thing. So, I started applying for mainstream jobs and disclosing what my experience was from did not help :)

Thing is, this industry is tainted (perception-wise to mainstream companies). Don't get me wrong, I got creative with "how I disclosed it," but still, it is tough out there.

When I was looking for mainstream marketing jobs, I learned exactly how tied to the industry I am. Hell, many companies wanted to know: examples of ad copy written, sites promoted, consumer traffic spots I worked deals with....most of which can not be easily fudged.

I am not planning to leave my Weg marketing job, nor any of my personal interest without a good fight, but, I do at times think about what may happen if I have to get back into mainstream.

Sure, a lot is out there and I am sure I would get into the groove of things, but I don't think it would be without a few headaches.

honestly and truely i would just turn to cooking full time. i've been a chef for about 6 years now, and i have enough expierience in that industry where i could support myself.

Are you in SoCal?

I surf rather frequently. I sure as hell wish I could find a way to do that for a living. Damn, life would be good.

I'd remain a writer. I've found the job I love, now I'm sticking with it.

I bet the cooking thing goes over real smooth with the girls man :)

I wish I could say I was a chef. Or I should say I wish I could say I was a chef and actually have it be true :)

I'd probably have to sell crack/weed at the corner :(

Heh heh

http://web.archive.org/web/200010171...self.com/1.Jpg

run for president

If it came time then it would be time to brush off that postgraduate degree.

I'd be lazy for a while, take a break... Then probably try be a Fighter Pilot :)

Sell crack to schoolchildren.

Sales back to comission sales

travel fulltime for about 1.5 - 2 years. spend more time snowboarding and hiking. head back to uni for my masters.

Traveling is great man. That would be the life. I actually took about a month and went around South America; one of the best things I have ever done.

I would probably write some cheesy novel...filled with platitudes for the masses...

Self help books rule!

:thumbsup

Dr. Raven!

probably do something decent and wholesome for a change.:1orglaugh
