    The Grumpy Baker was created in 2002 by Michael Cthurmer Owner-operator as a Café/Retail Bakery in Oxford Street, Darlinghurst. Finding a niche in the market for good, old fashioned bread, particularly artisan sourdough that was more “cheesy” and less of a “vinegar” starter, he set out to conquer the bread world. The Grumpy Baker had outgrown its current premises, expanded into the wholesale market (with a repertoire of clients ranging from top restaurants, cruise ships, hotels, coffee shops and catering companies), and had moved into a commercial factory in Leichhardt and received our HACCP accreditation. The range of breads is now sold at numerous retail outlets throughout Sydney as well as Paddington Markets every Saturday and we are committed to providing our customers with high quality products that really have been lovingly hand-crafted.

    Not the best introduction to hospitality work
    The good thingsThe other staff I worked with day to day
    The challengesAlmost always understaffed or people calling out High rate of employee turnover exacerbating this Hardly any management to rely on High demand of staff to maintain unrealistic expectations Consistently run off our feet in busy/periods days with not enough people or time to keep the store tidy or service customers as they expected Our store specifically was known within the company as having the 'worst customers' and often with just two/three of us working we would have to handle difficult customers without support or feeling safe enough to tell them they couldn't return
