Book Description
It is late July 1979 when a young man interviews with a relatively new fast-food chain. After he is immediately offered a position as a manager trainee, John never realizes that it is an early warning sign of future chaos. A saner man should have turned and ran. After he endures training and is promoted to assistant manager, John is transferred to a new restaurant. Excited and pumped for the challenge, he has no idea what is in store for him on his first day. Just as he begins closing the restaurant for the night, a masked man emerges from the hedges, robs the restaurant, and causes an unpleasant ending to John’s first foray in the industry. As he struggles through multiple robberies, corporate intrigue and politics, snow and ice in Atlanta, and questionable decisions from upper management, John somehow finds a way to inject humor into the most stressful and intense situations as he navigates through both good and bad days in an unpredictable business. Behind the Burger is the intriguing and sometimes amusing tale of a restaurant manager’s experiences as he does his best to survive and thrive through three decades in the fast-food industry.

Billion Dollar Burger
Author: Chase Purdy
Publisher: Penguin Group
ISBN: 0593853865
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
The riveting story of the entrepreneurs and renegades fighting to bring lab-grown meat to the world. The trillion-dollar meat industry is one of our greatest environmental hazards; it pollutes more than all the world's fossil-fuel-powered cars. Global animal agriculture is responsible for deforestation, soil erosion, and more emissions than air travel, paper mills, and coal mining combined. It also, of course, depends on the slaughter of more than 60 billion animals per year, a number that is only increasing as the global appetite for meat swells. But a band of doctors, scientists, activists, and entrepreneurs have been racing to end animal agriculture as we know it, hoping to fulfill a dream of creating meat without ever having to kill an animal. In the laboratories of Silicon Valley companies, Dutch universities, and Israeli startups, visionaries are growing burgers and steaks from microscopic animal cells and inventing systems to do so at scale--allowing us to feed the world without slaughter and environmental devastation. Drawing from exclusive and unprecedented access to the main players, from polarizing activist-turned-tech CEO Josh Tetrick to lobbyists and regulators on both sides of the issue, Billion Dollar Burger follows the people fighting to upend our food system as they butt up against the entrenched interests fighting viciously to stop them. The stakes are monumentally high: cell-cultured meat is the best hope for sustainable food production, a key to fighting climate change, a gold mine for the companies that make it happen, and an existential threat for the farmers and meatpackers that make our meat today. Are we ready?

Behind the Drive

Book Description
Hwy 55 Burgers, Shakes & Fries, formerly known as Andy's, spent 20 years nestled quietly in North Carolina until they started franchising outside of the state in 2010. They expanded at an astonishing rate, in four years selling franchising rights for nearly 1,000 stores worldwide and becoming recognized as one of the best franchises in the United States. For founder and CEO Kenney Moore, who grew up poor and destined for a lifetime of anonymous mediocrity, it was the American Dream come true. But along the way, mistakes and personal demons Moore thought he buried in the past caught up to him, and they threatened to destroy everything. Behind The Drive covers Moore and Hwy 55's fight to survive and explores the good, the bad, and the ugly of what it really means to chase the American Dream. The result is a raw, honest story perfect for our anxious, cynical time, a story that says despite our past, our fears, or our failures, although the American Dream might look different than it used to, it's still very much alive -- and, as Moore discovers, it can still take us as far as we dare to imagine.
