Description
Fast food chains like McDonald's and Burger King are part of world-wide corporate empires that generate billions of dollars in annual sales. In Making Fast Food Ester Reiter examines the impact the fast food industry has had on the organization of work and family life. To gather information for this study, Reiter, openly declaring her research intentions, worked full-time at a Burger King outlet for ten months without pay. She shares her first-hand experiences of that work and its organization, describing the interests of those directing large-scale, multi-national corporations; the concerns of the women and teenagers who work there; and how the interests of the employees are, or are not, recognized.
