Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch:
This is the slowest lunch I've worked since I've been back. I was hoping we might get a late pop, but it never happened. It was raining pretty hard most of the afternoon so maybe people ordered out for lunch today. We still were not 1/2 full by 1 so I went 2 on. Cut Junko at 115, and 1 on at 130. Had 2 1 tops walk in for the last 3o minutes. Tickets times were great.

Had to comp a spicy Miso Ramen because the guy found some hard red plastic chunks in it. He was very understanding about it, but had to get back to work so I brought him one togo to enjoy at the office. Showed Jersey the plastic, and we looked around the kitchen to try and figure out where it came from, but couldn't figure it out.

Dinner:
It was such a slow start. Ran with 4 on since we closed the party room because of the leak in the roof, and we had an extra SA training. We started filling up around 8, and got up to a 30 minute wait by 830. Got everyone sat by 9, and went 2 on. Cut the host at 930. Ticket times were good all around.

Josh the new SA did a solid job for his first shift. Very personable with guests and staff. Open availability and wants to train in other support rolls and work whatever we need. I think he'll be a good fit.

Specials?
Tsukiji Carpaccio- 9
Poisson Cru- 3

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):

Any VIP's in?
Steven (UT Professor) and his wife (Name?)

Comps& Void Detail:
-Comped Miso Ramen besause of plastic found in it.
-Lots of training rolls for spencer
-Training meals for Josh and Jason
-Comped some Suziki sashimi for some regulars (really nice gay couple that live in the neighborhood) at the sushi bar. They said it smelled and tasted off. Toshi said it was fine, but the piece I tried tasted a little off to me as well.
-Comped a edemame that took a while to hit the table. Mandy dropped the first one in the wait station. Had a remake made, but the ticket got lost while cleaning up the mess. None of the servers claimed it. Eventually I figured out that it was going to B8. They had already received their rolls when I got there, and didn't want it. I gave it to them on the house, and explained the situation. They were understanding. 
-Owner comp for Take & Kayo

R&M needs?:
Roof leaking from the rain. The roofers are going to be come next week correct?
