Any Special events going on?:

Who worked?:Clair, Joel, Johnny, Lynn CL, Jason FR, Junko Host and Jonathan SA

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Slow. Very slow. Never filled up. Came close for just a minute. No significant ticket times but there is and issue with bento box mods (see R&M). Just before noon some mystery person left a water cup on the shelf with the POS systems and it spilled. Clair came to get me once they'd tried to wipe it up and accidentally unplugged the main computer. All I knew at that moment was water was spilled and the computer wouldn't come back on. Joel found the unplugged cable and plugged it in. Luckily there was only a very brief hiccup that didn't affect anything really. Still, I was pretty heated at the idiocy of putting liquids anywhere near our POS systems! I cut Joel at 12:30, Clair at 12:45, Johnny at 1:30pm and Jonathan at 1:50pm.

Specials? 11 bento

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): If I knew who did pulled the stunt with the water cup I'd be all over them in this. Fortunately after all that everyone was on their very best behavior.

Any VIP's in? The Kanbara drinking, car dealer sushi car regulars came in. There was another coupld that sat at B5 that Take knows. I know I recognized them, but don't remember who they are. Some other familiar lunch faces.

Comps& Void Detail: No misrings. I voided at test Bento. No comps. $15 kome bucks from B5.

R&M needs?: Bento modifications are not printing in the kitchen. Specifically after the roll is selected, if there is any message to the kitchen (the "message to kitchen" button IS used) it only prints the modification at the sushi bar. Clair had a pescatarian (SP?) ask about subbing something for the kara-age on the bento. Jersey suggested Tako-yaki. Clair rang in the bento, with the substitution written out and only the bento rang in without any notes. I tried the same thing in a test with the same results. I left the tickets that printed in the office for anyone needing further visual reference.

Power flickers on occasion. Don;t know if that is something that can be fixed before it breaks or what. 

86'd items/ need more?
