DAY 5

Today I am exhausted... we've been working from about 7am-5pm every day and it is starting to wear on me.
Paul introduced us to Computrition today. Their entire food service will be switching over to this new program before the Fall semester. Basically, it is a software that helps you inventory, choose recipes, purchase, and figure nutrition analysis for every item used in every location on campus. It's pretty incredible actually.
Being a NACUFS intern has some fringe benefits. Not only is it a paid summer job, we also get a free room on campus, and free food. Today they let us load up a whole crate of food for our weekend meals because their are no dining services open on the weekends during the summer.
We met Greg, who owns a large sales brokrage company in Montana. He represents companies such as Hormel, Campels, Land of Lakes, and various ConAgra brands. Currently MSU is switching to his brand of syrups for the Standing Room Only Coffee Shops on campus. He was very helpful in filling in the pieces of info that Paul went over earlier in the week. Although his job sounds interesting, and profitable, I am not cut out for sales. It's all about numbers and meeting quota. He took us out for lunch at a new local restaurant called College St. It too was delicious!
