Due to the overlap of the Super Bowl, I didn't get the entire episode of last night's starter show, but I was VERY impressed! It was the CEO of Waste Management, and I absolutely loved this show!

I hope it continues for a really long time, and is as impactive as last night's. I guess next week the CEO of "Hooter's" is going undercover, and will discover some really sexists things going on. Duh! Isn't that bascially what "Hooter's" reputation is built on? The rumor is that you can't get a job there unless you have nice, large, boobs.

Well, let's see if this person can do something about that rumor, and the general reputation of "Hooter's"! And let's see what happens when he sees how some of the women who work there are really treated. Should be very, very interesting. Can't wait.

"Waste Management"

The CEO met individually with each one he had worked with.
The guy that 'fired' him? was given a some position in motivating others.

The woman that was doing everything? was promoted; 2 assistants hired to do what she had been dong; she's now an account manager.

The trash pick up woman? was promised that they would work on solutions to make their jobs better

The portapotty guy? can't remember exactly

The woman who rushed to clock back in? Her boss was brought in and told to fix that problem - that it was ruining morale. (I thought it was funny tho that it appeared she rushed to the clock to clock back in yet she went and sat back at the table with "Randy" - after she clocked back in - or did I mis-see that?)

Yes - she did - however - what I thought was ridiculous and it was never mentioned was that because the line went down they were forced to take their lunch hour at that time. So I think the line was still down and they could not return to work anyway.

Also, I liked this show - but I really have a hard time believing some of them had no clue who he was - - His picture would be all over announcements etc. I know I work for a very large company and would recognize my COO unless they really made him look different

Not to mention the camera crew following him around.

They are told that the camera crew is there to film a documentary about their company or some such...

Is this guy going to be on the show again, or just for the one episode (which I missed)? He has my name, with a minor spelling difference.

The CEO's are only doing one episode about their companies. Next week will be CEO of White Castle.

We never had White Castle Burgers here in Arizona, still don't, except to buy them in the frozen foods department. So, it will be interesting to me to see how the company works, and where exactly it is located.

I'm expecting it's more in the midwest? Anyone??
