I love my job. In fact, some days it scares me a little how much I enjoy spending time there. I would be there every day if I could. A big part of this is because I have some amazing coworkers and for the first time in a while I feel like I'm part of a team, and in fact a vital part of it. It's so funny because even though most of us started as newbies in July many of my coworkers come to me with questions or to get my opinion before they have to bother a manager and even more amazing is I often know the answer, however I'm well aware this could well be attributed to the many hours I put in every week. My managers all like me and thus I often get asked to do projects and ignore the hum drum of the daily assignment sheet which always makes me laugh. I'm also becoming friends with part of the crew so we hang out on occasion, this week we're heading to see a movie which should be fun.
On a similar side note, I made about 10 dozen cupcakes and brought them into work for Halloween. I received many compliments and waves of gratitude from everyone which was fun. Then Rocco DiSpirito came into our store for a question and answer session and book signing on Saturday and ate 2 of my cupcakes and asked to meet me. He, a real chef, asked to meet me! He said he really loved my cupcakes and took 6 home with him!!! Needless to say this makes me wonder if all of those dreams of my owning a bakery might be prophetic and a fun future to think of. I'm having so much fun in all my education classes but who knows maybe later on I'll have to do some pastry school work and see what I can do about opening a bakery.
I am happy and life is incredibly good. Plus only three weeks til Lancaster!
