I would LOVE to work at Central Perk and even if Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Monica, Phoebe and Joey weren't there, I think the atmosphere of the Café would be amazing enough. ALSO, it's in New York City so I would be very very happy.  4. An Assassin - Assassin's Creed. Lately, I have started playing As
