Taking a page out of Vaya’s baking analogies, I’ll use farming analogies when it comes to talking about work. This comes from my frequent urges to actually work the land and lie in a barn.

After months of cultivating wheat on my field, my customers do an about-turn and now want barley instead. Nobody wants the wheat now and on top of that I’ve to literally push the Earth round its orbit so that the seasons can cycle faster, enabling me to harvest barley in the shorter time I now have. My customers aren’t starving. They just chose this time to be fickle.
