Let's start with the bakery. I work as a baking apprentice in a physical store, working 8- 10 hours a day. I do some simple jobs every day, doing odd jobs for the master, having no study time, and I can't learn baking technology at all. Even if you can learn, it depends on whether the master is willing to teach baking knowledge. After all, the master also has his own job. Besides, opening the door to do business is to make money. Which boss is willing to consume raw materials and increase costs for apprentices to learn?
To study and make money; In the end, you will find a truth that "the ideal is full and the reality is very skinny". Being commanded, handyman, and washed infinitely, it is always empty to be an apprentice for one year. Nominal apprentice, but you basically have no chance to get started. Bakery (cake shop) is always the master of making products, and the meaning of apprenticeship is to help the master complete their work; Even if you don't understand the basic principles, the more you learn, the more confused you become.

What you should consider is not learning, but how to survive.
