My Bubble Gum Factory

Hi!  I’m Paris, and I run a bubble gum factory.  I am the boss.  I’ve been working for ten years. I have 142 workers. 71 people switch from day shift and night shift. I have only fired one person.  She didn’t do her job at all.

My building is 17 stories high and four rooms wide. It is green with pink bubbles on it.  It has a big sign that says “Bubbleishious.”

We have a gift shop.  That’s where we have our mascot, Bubble Face.  He is a monkey that has bubble gum stuck to his face and hand.

We have a mixing room where we add the gum base and the corn syrup.  We have to melt the gum base first before we do anything else.

 The color room is where we take the food coloring and add it.  The colors we usually use are red, orange, yellow, blue, green and purple.

There is a room for sweetening and souring.  We add powdered sugar to sweeten and citric acid to sour our product.

Our people have to be careful when putting in citric acid because if they get it in their eyes it’s really bad.  If this happens we put our eyes under cold water for 15 minutes.

If you’re looking for a job to lose weight, the kneading room is perfect.  Kneading is very hard.  The gum gets really sticky and stiff.  If the gum gets sticky, we add powder sugar.  If the gum gets stiff, we add some hot water.

There’s a finish room where we can put swirls in the gum and send balls of gum to the foil room.

The foil room is where we make the balls into a strip then put foil on for a wrapper.

My part is to taste and test the gum.  I also take orders for the people who want the gum, and I observe the other workers.

The flavors that we have are blueberry, watermelon, cinnamon, mint, and strawberry.

The pay for the month is $1,364.00. I have two people that help me with the money for business.

My business is a very fun place to be.  We have very friendly people except the janitor.
