Ten Forward Doesn't Fit
Here's Andrew Probert's concept art for the Enterprise-D's saucer rim, intended as a darkened corridor with an awesome view.
And here's Michael Okuda's concept art for the location of Ten Forward, which gave exactly zero fucks about the intended size of the ship.

Because I like happiness for my favorite fictional people, my new headcanon is this.
Post STP, the characters still on earth meet up at least one night a month for drinks and cards at Ten Forward. Guinan eventually sets aside a back room for them because these crazy seniors get more rowdy than the cadets ever could. If any off planet friends are in the area, they come too.
After all they’ve been through, this crew WILL NOT lose touch again.

“There is a tide in the affairs of men
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea are we now afloat;
And we must take the current when it serves,
Or lose our ventures.”
Julius Caesar, Act IV, scene III. By William Shakespeare

gotta wonder how the bar on the enterprise works, specifically talking about the bar on TNG era Trek, Ten Forward
like I can see reason for a communal drinking location but why is it a bar, why not a self-service canteen
I'm discounting capitalist reasons (it's not a business in the we don't use money society) and I can't imagine it being a restricted supply thing (replicators??) but like there are obviously bottles of beverage, and bar staff to serve them, you can probably replicate any drink you want, like functionally There's no need for the bar to be anything other than a stack of replicators in a room
so then does the bar and the bar staff and the unlabeled bottles of beverage serve a social function, does talking about what to drink and then watching them pour it do something, is it part of the culture much the same way the communal drinking locations are, is it a safety feature, the bar staff are there so Starfleet doesn't drink itself into a stupor (bars are after all a safe consumption site), are the replicators in other parts of the ship blocked from replicating booze, some or all of these things

What ship and what job position would you want if you were in the Star Trek universe? And if you want to get more specific, what era?
(Disregard if this has been asked already.)
Sorry it took me so long to get to this
Bar staff on the Enterprise-D. I get to come along for the ride, chat with the crew but stay out of direct trouble and I don't have to know any crazy space sciences or have the weight of lives on my conscience
Cons: I have to dress like this:

"'Twas long ago he earned the name 'hero'...
"He led his retinue, ten Pokémon, against the almighty unknowable.
"In battle did his valiance proclaim at last the strength of humble humankind.
"The great unknowable approved this feat, and to its domain of no place returned."
