Who worked?:
Lunch: Clair, Sophia, Johnny, Stephanie CL, Jason SA, Junko H, Per Faijer FR
Dinner: Sophia, Clair, Taylor, Miho, Kate CL
I told Taylor tonight that I wouldn't be scheduling him any more closing shifts for awhile. Talked awhile about the other night, but just told him I didn't feel comfortable scheduling him those shifts until he proved he could keep his attitude in check.
Sheila, the new dishwasher was very nice, and did a good job tonight. She came in very nervous, and after she filled out her paper work, I gave her a pep talk. I told her to first stop calling me sir, that everyone is very nice here, and that as long as she did her job she would be fine. She's an older lady, and super appreciative of the opportunity.

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch:
It was a slow lunch. We filled up once, but that was about it. Ticket times were good most of the shift, but had 30-35 minutes on the last couple rolls. Ended up doing 1/2 off on those to make customers happy. 2 on at 115. Support cut at 145.
Dinner:
I thought it was going to a mellow night after the 3 day weekend. It wasn't crazy, but we were on a wait at 630, and stayed on a 20-25 minute wait until about 830. It was nice and busy most of the night. Did unfortunately have our 12 top no show. We thinned out around 845, and died around 920. Maybe we should start securing a deposit. I've been having this happen a lot lately. Ticket times were good. Kitchen missed a yasai kakiage that ended up taking 35 minutes, so I comped it of course. Rolls got up to 30 minutes at the busiest point, but just for a couple of orders. No comps necessary. Went 2 on at 845, and 1on at 935. Cut host and SA at 945.

Any VIP's in?

Comps of note:The few items mentioned above. Take comped a few beers for Kitchen staff at the end of the night.
