Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
This morning was pretty slow. We never went on wait but we were close to filling up. Sushi bar got backed up, Kazu had a lot of sushi lunch at one time. I watched this happened and made the servers aware to tell their tables sushibar will take longer. Kazu was better at giving me an accurate number to how long things will take which helped me brace the customers. There were no voids/comps. Overall a good shift.Cut to 1 at 1:45

Tonight we filled up and went on wait by 6:30. We had a party who ordered a lot of sashimi and nigiri pieces which really backed sushi bar up. until 9:20pm we were at 30min sushi bar tickets. As soon as I saw so many being printed I let servers know to tell their tables. Being able to catch this problem right when it started was good because the tables were already told it would take a long time and no one was upset.


3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
Joaquin was doing ok today and was pretty focused, but at the end of the night he got a little distracted talking to Ruthy. Just because she didn't have anything to do at the moment doesn't mean you don't
Alex did good today. She was on a double and had the party room full until 9:45pm. She didn't rush or cut corners to get out early. She was very through with her side work.
Kate seemed a little distraught today, very quite and didn't really ask for help. I had to ask her when she got busy
Sarah's first solo day hosting. She has the fundamentals down but she needs more confidence and to be louder

Any VIP's in?
