No. The industry is incredibly volatile and constantly changing, which makes it difficult to stay ahead of the curve. Additionally, the competition is incredibly fierce and it can be difficult to make a profit.

No, is very competitive and constantly changing. It is important to be able to adapt quickly, which I am not that good at

Maybe I am one of the few people who think that yes, I would do it again because I love my job, being in charge of shopping and having to meet people from other countries.

Probably not, pay isn't great and work is mindless. Thinking about trying to switch to something related with Data Analytics + Supply Chain, but need to get some certifications for that most likely. Pay looks better on that side of the world :)

These brownies are the best of both worlds! A chewy fudge interior like mochi, crispy edges and shiny top like brownies. Unlike traditional brownies, they are surprisingly less dense and light. Not too sweet which is the way I like it.
