Central Michigan pass rusher Joe Ostman is in the process of interviewing for the biggest job of his life, that of an NFL player. But prior to the draft process, the only job Ostman ever held was in his family bakery.
If you’re looking for a job to prepare you for the work ethic required to be an NFL player, working in a bakery is actually a good one. Working at Mackinaw Bakery required Ostman to wake up at 4:30 a.m., or earlier to start preparing for the day ahead.
“Growing up that’s what I did,” Ostman said.
