For my ephnography topic I chose to study the culture of resturaunt operation, and more specifically Sodexo food company. I know that Sodexo is a wide spread organization with resturaunt locations all across
Massachusetts. They employ a large amount of students and community members from diverse backgrounds with many diufferent responsibilities. There are many positions available in food service; from dishwashing, serving, cooking, cleaning, and baking to supervising and manageing.

I have many questions about resturaunt culture, do they have unions? whats the employees attitude about their employers? as well as customer satisfaction and opinions. I wonder if they pay above minimum wage? give employees work breaks? benefits? or vacation time. or if they allow them to eat during their shifts for free. What is the dining atmosphere like? mood, sounds, music, smells, and sights. I also wonder how members of the staff work together to allow a smooth enjoyable dining experience.
