Do you even bake, bro?

We’re more than a year into pandemic-normal, and while the end finally seems to be in sight, we’re also getting some indications of which COVID practices will stick with us.

While Zoom drinks and sudden surges in demand for toilet paper will be out (thank goodness), the ecommerce analytics platform Profitero says hand sanitizer, bread-baking and sweatpants seem here to stay. Look, as long as I can keep saying “Arise, Loaf Vader” each time I take the latest no-knead out of the oven, that’s all good with me.

Onto the jobs:
