What in the world?!?!?

Yeah, thats a common question that we bitter bakers have when dealing with some customers. And thats actually cleaning it up a bit. A lot of times we just SOH(shake our heads). Others, have "the stare". Listen, if you're discussing your cake order and the baker begins to give you a blank stare, that means "shut up and just stop talking". At that point, you have either lost us or confused the hell out of us. It in no way means that WE are lacking in intelligence and can't follow you, most times its YOU and we're trying to tune you out! Yes! Really! When you encounter the blank stare that means we've pretty much stop listening to you and we have now went into a random thought mode: "Hmmm...I wonder if my old job will take me back" or "If I smash this cupcake in her face, is that assault?" "Can I claim temporary insanity?" Just because you have an idea in your head it doesn't mean it should always be vocalized. Don't listen to the little voices in your head, a lot of times they only make sense to YOU.  "LISTEN TO THE VOICE OF THE PROFESSIONAL". Bottom line, if you've sat with someone and went back and forth on a design due to you "wanting to have it your way" for an hour or so and you're told "awww shucks, I'm sorry but I didn't realize I'm booked for that day".
You can only blame yourself for NOT SHUTTING UP. You have pushed the Bitter Baker to the point of saying :"WHAT IN THE WORLD..........!?!?!? (Drop rolling pin, exit stage left)
