Bad Chicken

     According to "Frontline", there has been a recent study showing that Salmonella was found in chicken.  The outbreak caused over 600 people to become sick with the disease, although the chicken eaten had been tested prior to it being sold.  Foster Farms had three infected chickens which had been tested as not diseased.  Consumers had no idea what they were about to eat when they did.   Changes to the tests are now being made in order to make them more safe.  I was unaware that it was common for diseases to be missed by companies when they test for them.  I would like to learn more about that so i can easily trust that I will not get sick while eating chicken or any other food that could carry it.   This relates to business since Foster Farms is going to loose business since consumers will not want to get sick from eating their food.  

Scavenger Hunt

       Last Intro to Business class we went outside to complete a scavenger hunt.  Each person was allowed one or two partners which was very helpful.  I had two partners which made the assignment easier.  Each of us had a priority, I was to take the pictures, Emily was to be in the pictures for proof that we took them and Matt was to read off the item,s that were needed to be found.  All of us were to contribute into finding the items.  It was helpful to have more than one person to look for the items since we found them faster.  While doing this assignment I made connections to my life.I never realized how many advertisements and business related things were in my neighborhood.  This assignment was very helpful to improving my business life.
