Kate was scheduled at 5:30 and was a no call no show until about 6:45 when she called my cell. She said she set her alarm but it didn't go off. I told her not to bother coming in, and that I gave her shifts away for tomorrow and Sunday. To be honest, with her negative attitude and the way she has been treating her team mates, she is on her last leg here. I can't motivate her to move faster, and her negativity brings down the staff. I told her this. I told her she needs to take the next few days and really think about whether or not she wants to be a part of this team, or if it's time for her to move on. I also told her that at this time I don't think she is in the position to be a trainer, so she will not be at the brunch on Sunday. We can talk more about this at the manager meeting tomorrow.

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Busy night. Went on a wait around 6:15/30 and stayed on the wait until around 9:20. Didn't cut anyone since we were running 4 on already. The staff was busy and everyone was moving around tonight. No downtime. teamwork by everyone, Krystin especially, being that super star. John has really come a long way and was hustling and bustling through the Dining room, not ever once standing still.

Rolls got obliterated tonight, but everyone at sushi bar jumped in and helped so we never had an excessive ticket times.

Specials:
Greenbelt Roll 18 (one more was sold after Andrew yelled 86)

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
Kate, mentioned above
-Lindsey did a great job training Chelsea tonight, She made sure Chelsea stuck by her and she made sure Chelsea was paying attention to the details
-Everyone had their hustle pants on tonight. Great work!
-Worth the mention: due to Kate not showing up, I split the back b's up a little strange, since we were in the middle of service and most of the restaurant was filling up. Krystin had the back A's plus B5 & 6. Sayo had the middle B's plus B7. Dusten had Sushi bar, B1 & B8. And these guys worked it all night. Like "work it girl" worked it. Super proud of the team tonight.

Any VIP's in?
-Susan and her husband (crossword puzzle couple)
-John and his wife (short lady, blonde hair)
-Ben, my mortgage broker.
