We're looking for a little extra help around here.

This one's a fill-in spot, the person we call when someone needs a day off or things get busy. (Right now that mostly means afternoons, but it'll shift around as we go. If you like the idea of bakery hours some weeks and none other weeks, this is that kind of job.)

Stop in and pick up an application at the counter. We'd love to meet you.
