Last Friday, Nestle threw an intimate little gathering for its Swiss employees. All of them. They closed *all* of the Swiss production lines for one day to ensure that people could come. Between 8000 and 9000 people showed up at the Palais de Beaulieu, in Lausanne. Everything was catered: transport from all over Switzerland, locally sourced food and beer/wine, and a full roster of Swiss performers. I left early, because I was starting to feel crappy (ended up with a full-blown case of man flu over the weekend) but apparently it was a blast.
