Who worked?:
Lunch: Jason, Lindsey, Johnny, Stephanie CL, Junko w/ Julie, Alex FR, Per Faijer
Dinner: Jason, Alex, Sophia, Kate, Eileen CL, Lindsey w/ Julie, Jen FR, Per Faijer

Julie seems really friendly, and will be a strong addition to the support staff. Had Eileen work the Sushi bar. She did alright, but after cuts she got a little behind. She struggles a bit with high volume. She's great, until she gets table 5 or 6. I tried it out since Taylor asked off, but not sure if I feel comfortable with her as a closer. I think I'll be rotating folks in on Tuesday night to see how people do. We need more than just Dusten and Taylor as closers. I'd like to vet people on a slower shift, and be able to help them through it if they struggle.

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch: Really slow lunch. Never filled up or went on a wait. Ticket times were fine. Went 2 on at 1245, and cut support staff at 130.
Dinner: The cold really kept folks in tonight. We had 1 4-top go on the wait, and that was it. Had 2 reservations in the party room so that helped out sales a bit. Dinning room always had a few open tables. Ticket times were good. Went 4 on at 8, 3 on at 830, 20 at 9, and 1 on at 940. Cut Host at 930, and SA at 945.

Any VIP's in? A new regular named Ted at the Sushi bar. He's determined  to come back once a week and try everything on the menu.

Comps of note:

R&M needs?:

86'd items/ need more? We need more wobble wedges. Elizabeth, do we get these from Officemax, or Rest Depot? We also need more togo cup lids, and more portion cup lids.
