Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
To be honest I was a little concerned when I saw we didn't have an SA running 3 on. But it worked out well. Lina was training Mandy so she was able to step away from the host stand here and there to help bus tables and Mandy was right behind her wiping and set it. If only we could keep Lina! We would have 2 kick ass hosts. Oh well. Mandy is going to do great I just know it. She's very self aware and motivated. I like it. We didn't fill up until about 1:30 today. The opening pop was minimal compared to recent weeks, which was good in only having 3 on. Everyone worked really well with one another, thought I do wish I saw just a hint more teamwork. Overall though, it was a good lunch. Had a couple sitting at S5-6, the woman just found out she had Celiac not too long ago so she was really hesitant to order anything without talking to the Manager first. She was really sweet, the both of them were, and they had a nice time. Joel was their server, and the only thing that made me nervous, was at the end when I saw the ginger and wasabi bowl on the table- I really hope she didn't use any wasabi. I'm going to follow up with Kate about the materials she was working on for us and see if we can do a workshop of sorts to get the staff aware of what is Gluten free and what isn't. 

The pop didn't die down until about 2:30 so I didn't cut anyone until 2:45 and went down to just Stephanie. She got 2 more tables after that

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
Lina- helping bus tables in her downtime- great work!
Stephanie got a little bogged down when the party room wanted seperate checks and she got sat at Sushi bar at the same time, right after getting sat a 5 top, but she recovered well by delegating tasks

I hired Jonathan, the SA stage from last night. He will be back in Friday morning to fill out his paperwork and train with Jason again. This time in non-slip shoes.
