Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch we never got a big pop or anything, so I cut Johnny at 1 and then went down to 2 on by 1:30, and one on by 1:45. No ticket time issues. A woman found a fruit fly in her clear soup, but was very understanding about the whole thing.

Dinner we saw a small pop at 7:30 and the whole place filled up. We went on a small wait but by 8:15 we were off the wait. Started to clear out a little so I cut Eileen at 8:25, but it continued to clear our and I started cutting one by one. Had just Jason and Miho on by 9, and just Miho on by 9:20 as the place pretty much cleared out with the exception of about 5 tables. 

Any VIP's in?
Andrew Wiseheart (Exec Chef and Owner of Contigo)
Ryan Schibi, GM of the Ritz Alamo Drafthouse
Regulars: Rachel and Carlos as well as that older couple whose names I can't remember. She just beat cancer- they're from Chicago. Anyhow, they are coming back for lunch on Saturday and then they are leaving for Chicago and won't be back until after January. They're so sweet.


Comps of note:
Did some comps for the aforementioned people above.
If you are ringing in and comping manager meals or sushi man/boh meals, please remember to close the check. I closed out a check today from yesterday that was already comp'd but just not closed. Which was probably why yesterdays manager meal was only $8

R&M needs?:
I had Austin Industrial come back out to fix the leaky ice machine. The tech told me that we most likely will not be charged for this visit since it was not fixed the correct way the first time.
I reordered checks since we are starting to run low.
I'm calling out Clark Kent Plumbing to look at the sink in the mens room. From the research I did today it seems like there might be a leak somewhere which is what is allowing for the "sewer" smell, otherwise known as methane gas, that is just really overtaking the lobby area. At first I thought it was from the cold air, but now it's a constant issue so it has to be more than just the change of climate.
