am looking for good songs to go on a mix for a friend about to start working at a bakery. i've got a few things already (song of a baker by the small faces, brown sugar by d'angelo, sweet sticky thing by the ohio players, biggie's i love the dough, bread by clem snide) but was hoping to pick your impressive collective brains. songs about the shittiness of having to work service jobs are welcome too.

finally, worlds collide. i work as a baker/pastry chef. most mornings, at 3 a.m. standing over a stainless steel table, it's the music that keeps pushing me along.

and curious to hear when the sound of scones mixing in the background happens to sync up with whatever i've got spinning.

i try not to listen songs about work while...i work, however.
