Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
It was decent night. Had a pretty good happy. We were 3/4 full by 6. We had 2 smaller pops tonight rather than 1 big pop. We were on a wait by 615, but off the wait around 730. Went back on a wait around 8, and came back off a wait around 915. Had a handful of tables go over the wait. 1 table was 35 min over, and was a family with two kids. I made sure have miso soups ready right when they sat, and sent a gyoza over shortly after. They went from extremely grumpy to  super happy and it turned around their whole experience. There was 2 other tables that were about 20 minutes over, and I brought them miso soups as well. 2 other tables were about 10 minutes over, and I made sure to apologize and thank them for waiting. Nate was quoting a little low, and tables were camping extra hard tonight. I talked to Ruthy after the shift, and told her she needs to be running the show whenever she is working with a partner up there. She is a little too quick to pass over the responsibilities to newbies. I explained she is the senior staff member, we just gave her a raise, and I'll be ultimately holding her accountable for the host stand. She agreed. Ticket times were mostly good. Had a 30 minute shio saba due to a remake and a miscommunication. Also Jersey had to make more soba salad in the middle of the pop so we had 2 15 minute tickets for soba, but everything else was solid. Got a lot of good feedback from Jersey's special tonight. Went 2 on and cut 1 host at 915.

Sophia won both contests in the back Bs.
Jason is always super detail oriented as a food runner, and has lots of communication
