Did you catch the first episode of “Undercover Boss” on the CBS network? Senior executives work everyday jobs in their company, without the knowledge of co-workers.
In the first episode, the president of Waste Management Inc. (a Fortune 200 company) got fired on his first day working for his own company. Next week’s episode will feature an executive from Hooters. Future episodes will show senior executives from 7-Eleven, White Castle and Churchill Downs. Let’s hope eventually we see some Las Vegas employers featured, the possibilities are endless!
