I liked being able to have flexible hours and decorating cakes which is something I enjoy.
What I wish was different
I got bored doing the same thing day after day and felt as if my skills weren’t being respected as in the job interview they had said they would look at giving a raise after a month of working but never brought it up despite me drastically improving the quality and quantity of the cakes.
Advice
Find a job where there is room to grow and where your abilities are respected.
