That time I dropped a full sheet cake face down on the floor 2 hours before pickup

Last Saturday at the shop in Portland I had a 3-tier wedding cake order and somehow managed to flip the entire bottom layer onto the linoleum, frosting side down, and had to scrape it off and re-bake from scratch in under 90 minutes, anyone else ever had a cake disaster that made you question your career choices?

Oh MAN I read about a baker who cried into the replacement batter. Tough gig.

I read about a place in Portland that had to throw out like 400 pounds of dough because the health inspector found a hairnet in it. The baker apparently sat down right there on the floor and just lost it for a good ten minutes. Idk man, it's one of those jobs where you put your whole heart into it and one little mistake can wreck everything.
