Food companies are however putting themselves in front of children in every way possible. From the stores to home on television.

After interviewing Daniel Marsh in order to learn more about the required etiquette standard that his job requires, I must say that I was impressed. I was impressed to learn about how much his job, Chick-Fil-A, value their employees and customers. The level of etiquette that Chick-Fil-A requires their coworkers to display shows how much they care about the reputation of the company. According to Daniel, Chick- Fi-La requires their customers to remain friendly and calm at all times, even with rude customers. Daniel’s coworkers are allowed to talk to each other with a firm and sometimes slightly aggressive voice, however the use of a firm tone is always prohibited when talking to customers. Basing my conclusion on the information from the book, an aggressive act occurs when a person commit an act that might offend others without caring about
When it comes to fast food restaurants, most people tend to think of McDonald, Taco Bell, and KFC. Chipotle, however does not seem to have its name associate with the fast-food industry sector. Chipotle is a very successful Mexican-American chain restaurant that operates in more than 2000 locations world-wide. Its tremendous success results in its exponential growth and rising profit margin despite the scare of E. coli, Salmonella, and Norovirus in a few of its stores.

It was the first of its kind when Ells first opened his first restaurant and brought the idea of made-to-order burrito.

Furthermore, this gave him the confidence to open his second restaurant in just two years.
Growing up in a public housing development, I longed to one day help individuals from an underserved community obtain care. At this soup kitchen, my responsibilities included welcoming guests, serving food, waiting tables, and cleaning trays. I empathized with their excitement when watching them receive a hot cup of tea on a sub-freezing day or a book bag with a built-in trench coat on a stormy day. Having an opportunity to spend time with and learn from the diversity of the population that we served was invaluable. Each person had a unique story to tell and just wanted someone to hear it.
In the food and beverage industry, chief marketing officers have preyed on children as they are seen as an influential market force. These companies are not acting with their best intentions for children, but are rather using negative endeavors of advertising unhealthy foods and beverages to target children. Children are seen as a profit and lifelong customers from the moment they are drawn in using something as simple as a toy with their meal. Recently I saw a McDonald’s advertisement centered on the characters from the children’s movie “Despicable Me 2” known as Minions. The advertisement briefly mentioned the food portion of the meal because it was too focused on the Minion toys that were being sold with Happy Meals.

The commercials on the television, the advertisements placed on newspapers and the banners by big conglomerates have one thing in common: They are mostly geared towards children. Chapter 2 of the book Fast Food Nation, written by Eric Schlosser provides a history of two big American companies, McDonalds and Disney, and how their selfish desires led to marketing directed towards children. Schlosser’s central idea and usage of argumentative techniques along with bias define this chapter’s purpose as an educational work designed to reveal the antics of big money corporations. The central idea of this chapter is focused solely on the greed and selfishness of big corporations as they try to advance their business and gain profits while being

Though these children are still more interested in the popular the toy and will beg their parents to buy the meal from the fast food industry.
