Thread: Fast Food Nation

    Fast Food Nation

    Just have to share that I just went to a presentation and Q&A with Eric Schlosser, the author of "Fast Food Nation". I work for a university and he came to speak with the business school. It was very enjoyable and enlightening. I have already read the book, thoroughly enjoyed it, and would recommend it highly to anyone. But it was really great to see him discussing business ethics to a bunch of soon to be business people in a really conservative university in a really Republician state. He was totally down to earth, taking time to speak with me personally and sign my book. He made many great points and really articulated his ideas well. It really made my day.

    How exciting! I wish I was there!
    I read that book too, as well as a lot of his pieces for Mother Jones and the Atlantic. He is such a great writer, so thorough. I think I heard he's doing a book on prisons next.
    What a great experience.

    That's great and that book is high on my to read list.
    Life is all about a$$; you're either covering it, laughing it off, kicking it, kissing it, busting it, trying to get a piece of it, behaving like one, or you live with one.
