#bakery school

I keep forgetting to do updates here. It's day 111 of my becoming a baker adventure. I'm on my second work place experience and this one is such much better than my first. Starting to feel a bit monotone as you do the same thing every day but everyone is nice and takes their time to help you. And I feel a bit more confident and comfortable with certain tools and such so it's work. Last week and them back to school for a bunch of tests. Pictures are stuff I baked last week.

Twenty five of work experience. I would eventually clash with this woman if I wasn’t there for a short time. Getting such bully vibes from her. I don’t want to work at a place this. Unsure what I have learned other than that. A little concerned that I’ve fallen behind in my education. It will be interesting to hear of others experiences on Friday when class meet before Christmas. Need to finish my homework, I have two things to write.

Twenty three of work experience. Mixed day, started off cleaning and bunch, then I got to make some princess cake and Budapest… and then I went home. Need to fill out some papers and have my mentor sign it. Feels like it will take longer to get done than it should.

DAY 67 Twenty two of work experience. I did get to do a new things to day, nothing major but one part of a cake that I haven’t done before. I am wondering what to write on my list of bakes that I should be judged on… I haven’t really baked that much so, don’t know what to do. I have four more days to go so how much can I squeeze in with a reluctant crew?

11/12 I got to do some decent things today but I felt off and like everyone was just tolerating me being there but wished I wasn’t. I think I was just tired and over-thinking it

Eighteenth of work experience. Mentor was there and only one available for the meeting. It went okay, still unsure how the grading will go but… It was nice to see my teacher and she reassured me that she believes in me and that felt good. She mentioned that she had made a note that this place might not be ready for students in awhile and that she’d make an effort to make sure the next spot was better.

Sixteenth and seventeenth of work experience. Totally forgot about yesterday. A little less fun without l, same today. Tomorrow I’m supposed to have a meeting with my teacher and my mentor but not sure how this will go. My teacher wants the mentor or someone who’s worked with me the most and my mentor is not it. Is she even there tomorrow?

DAY 61 Fifteenth of work experience. Friday! Made so many cakes today, not all of them good and use sure to why. It’s going okay. Will miss one of the people that is off for a month and not there for the next two weeks and she’s made sure I get to do educational stuff. Need to stay on top of things without her.
