Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Oddly had a line at the door when we opened tonight. It was a little hectic of a start. Each opener got about 6 tables in the first 10 minutes, plus a couple more before the 530s arrived. Little bit of hustling to get everyone started, and then it was pretty calm. Steady trickle of tables through the night with a few tables having to wait here or there. Pretty mellow pace with a couple little pops. Ticket times were solid most of the night. Towards the end of the shift the  Musashino party got their order in. It was a lot of specialty pieces, nigiri, and sashimi. There were some longer tickets, but everything came out in waves, and they were enjoying themselves. Birthday girls were happy. Went 3 on at 9, and 2 on at 915. Cut Chanell and Nate at 945.


3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Chanell was a little timid tonight, and Nate was a pretty poor at training. All of the training guidelines are gone now which made it worse. With the hectic start I wasn't able to be as involved with her at the beginning. I had to remind her several times to say irashaimase and keep reminding Nate to be on her about it. Once things settled down a bit I was able to give her some coaching and she was fine. Her Food Running trains are all with Sigele, and Jason. I know they both will do a good job, and I will be able to be more involved with her training. 
-Had to talk with Jason & Mandy about being on the floor ready to work at their scheduled in time. Jason thought he was early (didn't know his actual in time), and Mandy was taking her time. Also had to give them direction on how to help Krystin, and Kate. A little frustrating since they should both know to help water sections before the SA came on. I will be covering this topic in the meeting on Thursday.
