<p>SherriHarding1: </p> <hr /> <div>Bach's Bakery in the central Chinese city of Changsha employs mainly hearing-impaired staff&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;The oven's warm glow and aroma of fresh bread signal the morning rush at Bach's Bakery in the central Chinese city of Changsha, but although the baking staff chatter excitedly, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour viên gia giới] you could hear a pin drop.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Bach's employs mainly hearing-impaired staff, whose banter over trays of pumpkin bread, Danish sausage rolls and apple turnovers is done entirely in sign language.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;The operation, owned and operated by German national Uwe Brutzer, provides work opportunities that are often hard to come by for his employees.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Despite growing awareness of disabled needs, life remains a challenge for China's hearing impaired, officially estimated at between 20 and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] 30 million.&lt;br&gt; Hearing-impaired employees use sign language while working at the bakery run by Uwe Brutzer in Changsha in central China&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;It's difficult to &quot;make good money and get an education,&quot; said Wan Ting, a 28-year-old employed by Bach's since 2017 after a previous unsuccessful stint in advertising design.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&quot;It's hard (to find work) in other places. You need to know someone to be able to find good work. If not, you have few options,&quot; added Wan, hearing-impaired since birth and speaking via sign language translated by Brutzer.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;With their communication challenges, the hearing-impaired are often steered into work requiring skilful use of the hands, said the 50-year-old Brutzer, making the bakery a nice fit.&lt;br&gt; The bakery has done good business despite the coronavirus pandemic, going viral this summer thanks to a spate of feel-good Chinese media coverage&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Bach and his wife Dorothee first came to Changsha in 2002 with a German charity to help hearing-impaired children.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;He took over the bakery in 2011 and has since trained around 20 bakers.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Most go on to work in other bakeries, restaurants or hotels.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;But other aspects of running a business -- hiring, working with suppliers, talking to customers -- pose major challenges to opening their own bake shops.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&quot;Two of our very experienced bakers (have tried), but they both closed their shops later again. It was too much hassle for them,&quot; he said.&lt;br&gt; German national Uwe Brutzer (back L) took over the bakery in 2011 and has since trained around 20 bakers&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;The bright and compact bakery has had a devoted local clientele for years in the city -- known more for its [http://pixabay.com/en/new-zealand-waterfall-nature-peppery/ peppery] Hunan cuisine -- despite being hidden in a non-descript residential side alley.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Bakery margins are thin, however, and Bach's has struggled, said Brutzer.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;But things are looking up, despite China's traumatic coronavirus lockdowns earlier this year.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Moving to no-touch take-out service during the epidemic kept volumes humming, and Bach's went viral this summer thanks to a spate of [http://photobucket.com/images/feel-good%20Chinese feel-good Chinese] media coverage.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;Today, a loud creak from the front door announces a new customer every few minutes and business is up five-fold from last year, said Brutzer.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The challenge now is meeting demand.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;&quot;But that will slow down, I hope, to a good level where we can pay better salaries and people will be happier,&quot; he said.&lt;br&gt;</div>
