Bakeries

Don't you feel like Breadtalk sometimes?

It's like how you begin with a hundred different bread designs in mind, each designed to cater to a different niche. You tell yourself, I'm going to try my best to make things a little better for people, and you pour yourself into your work, crafting each bun and puff with delicate love.

But then people come along, and are disappointed when they cannot find something they want. Andre's looking for the Chicken Skin Bun, Dex the Veggie Delight, Siao Charn the Mushroom Puff, and Limin the Bananas-Because-I'm-Limin Fluff.

And you find that you just cannot make everyone happy, and you have no choice but to steel youself, turn some people down and try to disguise the regret in your voice. You watch them say "It's Ok!" and leave, and cannot help but wonder how things might be different if only you could have found it in you to satisfy them.

Of course, it's the satisfied customers who push you on... Alex happy with the Wormy-worm-worm Swirl, Jiayun the CHIO BUn, Zhihao the I'm-Dumping-My-Friend-For-Warcraft Sandwich, Hanting the Rambo Bread.

Give and take la, give and take.
