No more bakery

Today was my last day at the bakery. I went in for a couple hours to make sure that the website was updated as much as it needs to be, at least for now.

I decided that I’ve spent enough time in food service, and it’s time for me to try to make it as a writer. I figure I’ve got a good chance, considering that next month I’ll be paying rent with money I made doing freelance writing in my free time.

Since this was my last day, I cleaned out my locker. You can get an impression of how long I’ve been working there by what I found: backups of all my important documents on 3.5" diskette.

It’s been a while since I’ve had a computer that actually had a disk drive that could read those. I remember when those diskettes seemed like a lot of memory. Now, they’re not large enough to hold a single photo from my cheap eBay camera.
