Bakery

I went to a bakely last weekend hoping to grab a quick bite to go.  I thought I would be in and out like a convenience store visit.  As I was p(r)aying for my baked goodness, the cashier reminded me that all bakely staff are platinum (w)rappers.  They've all wrapped a million pastries by the end of their first week.  When you buy three different things, they wrap each thing separately.  Why do they wrap so much?  There must be a bakely union in Japan that sets the standard for wrapping purchases.  The first commandment probably reads, "Thou shalt wrappeth each type o bakt goods individually."  I looked over at lady standing at the register next to me who was purchasing three cream puffs.  The cashier wrapped two cream puffs in one bag and the third cream puff in a separate bag.  I thought this was an Eco country trying to cut down on the use of plastic bags.  Little did I know that the second commandment reads, "Two puffs at a time".  I wonder if I can earn some Eco points on my next bakely purchase.
