Hopefully.  But my own first job after obtaining an M.A. in History was as the assistant donut baker at the Eagle Bakery in Tucson.  There were extenuating circumstances such as uncertainty about the draft, a small local market and lack of money to finance a move to a larger market. The up side was that I learned about craft breads, as all bakers got to take home their choice of a loaf of bread each night.  Some nights, if the twist khalas were out of the oven long enough and early enough we would take one, buy a quarter pound of butter and take it to the Green Dolphin, where it quickly would be pulled apart, slathered with butter and consumed, washed down with pitchers of 3.2 beer.
