  6. What Is Control? Control is power held over something or someone. In McDonaldization, the control is usually used on the employees or on customers.

  7. How It Helps • Control helps the overall rationalization process move smoothly. In fast food the control is used by making menus without many choices and uncomfortable chairs. All those things encourage the process of going to a fast food restaurant to be efficient and quick.

  8. Dreamworks Control • Dreamworks makes sure that they control what type of movies they release. For example, if there is a romantic comedy movie coming out soon then Dreamworks will not release one because they don’t want competition.

  9. What Is Efficiency? • Efficiency is an accomplishment of, or ability to, accomplish a job with a minimum expenditure of time and effort.

  12. Define Calculability • When the amount of what is produced matters more than the quality of what is produced.

  13. And this helps how? • I’m not sure if the quality of their work will suffer, but one of Dreamwork’s biggest goals is to increase the quantity of movies they put out each year. • They might think that having more movies available will reach out to more people and give them more movie views. Current fans will also go see the new movies.
