Weather: Rainy as all get-out, cleared up just before dark.

Any Special events going on?:Memorial Day

Who worked?: Lunch: Stephanie, Alex, Camacho, Sophia, Hiroe. Jason called in due to weather. He asked if we "needed him." I told him not to worry about it. On further reflection however it seems to me if everyone else can come to work without question, and he could ask that, then he could be here too.
Dinner: Camacho, Lindsey, Miho, Alex, Kate CL, Ruth host, Joaquin FR and Hiroe FR.

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Lunch was fairly busy. Went on a brief wait.
Dinner was also fairly busy. Weather or no, people were coming in. The house was nearly full with the 6pm servers and staff came in but Alex and Lindsey handled it well. Certainly they were glad to have the other two plus Joaquin! We stayed on a wait from about 6:45 to 9:30pm. Sushi rolls were taking 30+ minutes at one point. Not too many complaints about that. One table with antsy kids waiting on rolls got a 10% long wait time discount. Right now it is 10:30pm and the POS have gone offline... I think I have fixed it... fingers crossed... running CC's from the office at the moment. Okay... all is well. There was a notice that came up as the machine's were rebooting that the "license was set to expire in 7 day."

Josh the dishwasher seemed to let his temper get the best of him. He was audibly slamming dishes and the servers were complaining of getting random over-spray. He complained about the new dishwashing machine. I've received a few complaints from a couple dishwashers about it's inefficiency and uncomfortable posture while operating.

I just went to plug numbers into the P&L and there are already numbers for today and tomorrow. I don't know what is up with that. I didn't put them there and I'm just gonna leave it alone.

Any VIP's in? Anthony came in for lunch.Rachel and Carlos for dinner as well as Shawn (sp?) from Parkside

Comps of note: no. Server errors were caught in time.

R&M needs?: We have a serious leaking roof problem in the party room. It was dripping down the chandelier, but seemed to travel along the ceiling and made a bubble that burst. It stopped raining and I dabbed the ceiling dry so that we could keep our reservation in there tonight.

It would be really super nice if we could get some FOH only brooms and hide them in the office or somewhere.The ones we have are really rough and it kinda sucks for customers to see them if we need to clean up during service.

86'd items/ need more? 86'd topo chico, low on Mex Coke. Hot sake is dangerously low. Also there is no seaweed salad.
