Thursday I started a new job at the Goldfeild Bakery in Barkerville. It’s a long story why the career change and those closest to me know the details so let’s just say it was time for a change. Time to get off my ass and do some more physical work. I loved it! Thursday was a bit overwhelming, so much to remember. Friday was just a lot of fun. As I remember the prices etc more it will become more and more fun. Everyone is smiling and friendly, including my coworkers. Barb, the owner is a very laid back sweet lady… Extremely hard working and an amazing baker! I will be able to learn a few things from her! Bernice is her right hand and will be who I work with the most. We worked alone together Friday, got along great and seemed to work really well as a team. It’s going to be fun working with her, she’s pretty casual. Christina is a younger girl who comes in for 2 hours in the morning and helps open up then works in the photo studio for the rest of the day. She’s so cute and sweet and a really hard worker. Also Barbs daughter Mia trained me for a few hours Thursday morning but she is expecting a baby almost any day so I don’t think I’ll be working with her much. The job is until the park closes at the end of September then I will be off for the winter which will give me time to do some paintings! I might see if I can get a few shifts a week at the ski hill during their season, I would still have a few months off at either end. I am also designing the Tongue in Cheek coffee paper weekly so I get to keep my hand in the graphic design world… It is a lot of fun so I’m excited to be keeping it. If any of my readers want to check out the paper go to tongueincheek.ca. I started at the end of April so any issues May or newer were designed by me. Some funny stuff if you are looking for a chuckle.
Jason hand painted the sign for the bakery among others in the park.
The adventure has just begun so stay tuned…
