Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch- drastically different from yesterday, slow all afternoon. Never had a wait, but it remained steady enough for me to keep everyone on until 1, when I cut Lindsey. went down to just Lynn by 1:30. The afternoon sizzled out just like the hot sun.

Joaquin was much better today. It's probably because he was 40 minutes late. I gave him a come to Jesus talk, or a do or die talk, whichever you prefer. I was very close to just letting him go today, but I am giving him a final shot in the dark. I told him if he is late, calls out, or shows a lack of performance like he has done all week, then I'm firing him. This is his wake up call. Anymore misconduct and he's done. He kicked it into gear today at lunch and was on top of everything. Let's hope it stays that way.

Dinner- Happy hour started great. I've seen a significant boost in business on Thursdays during happy hour, it's very noticeable. It gets busy the first hour, then form 6-7pm is a lull, then it starts to slowly pick back up again. We went on a wait around 7:30 and stayed on the wait until about 9ish. I cut Lindsey around 9, and Naoto at the same time. Went down to 2 by 9:15. We had 2 parties in the party room and an additional 7 top walk in. The flow of the evening was a little off. It was consistent but also inconsistent.  I can't quite put my finger on it.

Any VIP's in? Ransom was in late night without David (David had a business dinner meeting), a few other familiar faces were in tonight as well, those names escape me however
