Current Situations

As a recent college graduate I've joined my 705019 million fellows in the constant hair-pulling and despair that comes from being unemployed. Actually, I can claim technical employment--I have the great fortune of working part-time in a bakery.

It is a pretty delightful job. I liberally partake of the stock (shh shhh), there's always a delicious aroma wafting through the air, and the Boss Baker even whistles! It's like something out of a movie!


I wouldn't mind working in a bakery part-time forever. Unfortunately it's not something with which I can really support myself...unless...


CORPORATE BAKERY EXECUTIVE. ...Baking? Tasting? CBO. CTO.

Think of the company benefits!*


Not to mention the morning de-briefings...


It better come with an excellent health plan.


*my bakery does not, in fact, make bearclaws or croissants. frittata?

    This post gave me the chuckles, no puns intended...

    it also reminded me of a manga, Yakitate!! Japan, where a kid tries to make the best bread for Japan. The whole series is full of puns.
