Another morning in the office. Another medialuna pastry and a long black in my keep cup.
Joe @paulhellyer, the joys of working life.

Thinking back to my "Tradie" days, it would be a pie, two ham sandwiches, a bowl of chips and a large flat white.
And that would just be on the way to the job. ( Out of town jobs required more sustenance and planning if going country:)
Good thing retirement came along.
@BigD No doubt countered by all the physical activity and steps you'd be doing each day. I always think of tradies being super fit. Office work is so sedentary! Luckily I have a bit of walk to/from the train station each time I come into the office. When I was my pre-retirement career days and had a car and carpark in our building, I hardly moved at all most days. Now that was unhealthy!
@paulhellyer Was in the days of swinging a hammer, no gas assistance nailing. Tradies are usually still as active I would think so energy levels required need plenty of fortification fodder.
I used to comment on how much we'd spend on smoko. I would think bakeries and petrol stations cash flows would follow building activity trends.
Similar to office workers really affecting cafes in a city.

Bob LeFridge My ex and her friend set up a little company called 'Smoko Chicks' in 90s Queenstown. They only serviced two large building sites (one each) every morning tea with sandwiches, bacon & egg rolls and the odd special order.
It was never much of a money-maker but on-site food certainly kept the tradies happy.
Si Dawson@BobLefridge Great. Now I'm in the mood for a bacon and egg roll. THANKS BOB.
The border collie and I used to get any leftovers. I love bacon and it turned out he went crazy over mashed egg.
@BobLefridge Wait. What.
Dog - choice between bacon and egg... choose EGG?!?!
What kind of weird parallel universe is this?!? lol
Dog wasn't offered the bacon. Precious... bacon!
@BobLefridge Ahh well ok - if the choice is between egg and smiles, I'd always choose egg, too (unless the smile was eggceptional, AHAHAHAHA you played right into that one)
(yes, I'm an idiot. I'm at peace with it)
essjax@sidawson @BobLefridge hello did someone say bacon and egg roll this is very relevant to my interests

Bakeries in an industrial area of town are worth their square footage in gold. I still seek them out if traveling, but my quantity has reduced to a med cup and a pie. A doughnut is hard to resist tho.
