    It’s amazing/sad how true this is. I’m a baker and every time someone comes to the bakery they always talk about how good it smells and how lucky we are to work in such a place. But after 15 years, I get to work and that smell of fresh baked brioche and caraway rye that I can smell coming up the street before I even get inside ….that smell just reminds me of hard work, 10 hr days on my feet, shoveling 20lb pans in and out of a 400° oven. The bread never ends.

    If anyone's interested but too lazy to count, Mandy's job entailed tasting 250 biscuits per day, which is, given an 8-hour work day, slightly more than 1 biscuit per 2 minutes.
    Also, the board where Mandy has to put her marks is 12x16 = 192 cells, so there's not enough place for her to mark all the daily batches, even if she fills it all, including the cells with the words BISCUIT COUNTER.
    Maybe she can manage that if she wipes her marks before or after her lunch break. Certainly not if she puts just 7 marks max in each row as she did.

      Based on how she's entering her marks, it seems like the appropriate assumption is that the biscuit factory operates continuously in three, eight-hour shifts. At a rate of 75,000 biscuits per day, with every 300th biscuit needing to be tested, each tester-shift would be responsible for testing 83.3 biscuits. It looks like she started entering her marks on row five of the 16x12 grid. If she makes seven marks per row for the remaining twelve rows, she'd have marks for 84 tested biscuits. Or would have done if she hadn't fled the factory and fallen out the window.

    I worked at a marmelade manufacturer in Northern Germany. Since we constantly had to test the marmelade, I hate marmelade xD

    It looks like Mandy was initially trying to eat an entire biscuit each time to impress the boss. If each biscuit is 200 calories, 75,000 divided by every 300th biscuit is 250 biscuits, or 50,000 calories per day. If she was able to keep up the pace, she would be the size of an elephant within a week. :/

      Her stomach would stop digesting far before that. Due to exploding you know. Those are pretty big biscuits. 250 can only be compressed so much. Specially since you’d need water.

      It wasn't to impress the boss, it was because she enjoys biscuits and never realised you can quickly become sick of them.

    My parents delivered a box of biscuits with raspberry filling for my birthday. I'm watching this while eating biscuits.

    Good lord trying 250 biscuits in one day and with no water either that sounds torturous
