I have worked in bakeries for the past twelve years. My first job was behind the counter in a bakery, which is where I got my start learning about the business. Two years later, I was a cake decorator. A few years after that, I rose to head of the cake department where I worked at the time. I had my own business for a couple of years, but conflicts with a business partner caused me to leave that. Being my own boss taught me the value of a paycheck, as well as gave me a new level of respect for the people who run a company.
