We Dropped This Batch Of Candy On The Ground 😳

That's right, we dropped our candy batch on the ground. Mild disaster hits the shop as Joe makes dolphin noises, Max gets crazy with his shots, and Craig thinks back to a time with a snake.

What a wonderful work environment and his kids were some of the luckiest kids in the world with parents that handle things so great. Accidents happen and you can't go back in time to fix them so why stress or get mad over it? Instead learn from it and move on.

I knew what my punishment was and did it, but I still needed to know that I was square.

I remember watching videos when Max first joined and they were teaching him all the little things slowly and now he just casually says he can make the rest of the batch on his own if he has to. Love that. It really goes to show both how much work he’s put in and how much more comfortable and confident somebody can get once they know something. It’s also kind of inspiring.
