A day in the life of Lloyd Squires, Vermont's 'best' bagel maker

I love portraits like this, as the lifestyle is so far from anything I experience in my day to day.<p>Along these lines, although this seems very tame in comparison, I&#x27;m reminded of the &quot;A Day in the Life&quot; chapter from Anthony Bourdain&#x27;s <i>Kitchen Confidential</i> (which I highly recommend):<p>&quot;<i>Thanks to my Bigfoot training I wake up automatically at five minutes before six. It&#x27;s still dark, and I lie in bed in the pitch-black for a while, smoking, the day&#x27;s specials and prep lists already coming together in my head. It&#x27;s Friday, so the weekend orders will be coming in: twenty-five cases of mesclun, eighteen cases of GPOD 70-count potatoes, four whole forequarters of lamb, two cases of beef tenderloins, hundreds and hundreds of pounds of meat, bones, produce, seafood, dry goods and dairy. I know what&#x27;s coming, and the general order in which it will probably arrive, so I&#x27;m thinking triage -sorting out in my head what gets done first, and by whom, and what gets left until later.</i>&quot;

Awesome seeing Vermont on the front page of HN. I can attest these bagels are amazing, I used to get them throughout college.

He then worked 15-hour days, seven days a week for seven years.<p>&quot;I&#x27;ve never worked less than 65 hours a week,&quot; he says.<p>He&#x27;s barely gotten outside of Vermont and Montreal because of the schedule. Now, fortunately, he gets a day off on the weekend. He&#x27;s recently been to both Connecticut and Boston.<p>NOOOOPE.

He makes&#x2F;sells on average 250 to 300 dozen bagels per day. The bagels sell for $10 a dozen, so that&#x27;s over $2500 revenue on the bagels alone. He&#x27;s open 6 days a week, so that&#x27;s $15,000 per week, or $780,000 per year.<p>His bakery is also a diner&#x2F;deli, and I&#x27;m going to make the assumption that the revenue from that covers all his non-bagel costs. The ingredients in a bagel cost less than 10 cents each, or about 10% of the selling price. So he could net about $700,000 per year.<p>Not a bad gig, if he could cut back the hours a bit.

&gt; He rarely gets four hours of sleep.<p>Right.<p>I genuinely don&#x27;t get where this glorification of no&#x2F; little sleep is coming from.

The Montreal spice bagels here are very good! It&#x27;s the perfect weekend morning spot located in an old warehouse that has a vintage furniture store on one side and a used record&#x2F;book store on the other. After I&#x27;m finished with my bagel and coffee, I love taking time to explore the other shops. They always have weird and interesting stuff.

When I think I am working hard, I watch folks like this, and I know I have it easy.

I&#x27;ve been to this bagel shop multiple times and I can attest that it&#x27;s good. It&#x27;s in a pretty rundown building with an unpaved parking lot. It just goes to show that quality is not always about aesthetics.

How can he sustain this 5 hour sleep schedule?

The Montreal bagel is no joke.
