I have a tv recommendation for you: Undercover Boss at CBS.com. It’s a reality show about the head of a major corporation doing entry-level work for a week. The episode I saw about Waste Management almost made me cry. It’s shmaltzy and uplifting in the best way. I also saw the Hooters episode. It was fine, but I suggest watching the Waste Management episode instead. Run, don’t walk, to watch this show!
People of the Internet, read and obey
I saw the Hooters one and thought it was pretty good. I’ll have to check out the Waste Management episode. I really like the idea of the big “out of touch” corporate leaders meeting the working class people that make their companies run; hopefully its not just an ingenious publicity stunt to promote business, but will actually mean positive changes for the blue collar employees.
