Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Lunch started slow with all the rain but slowly picked up around 12:45. I think the rain definitely kept us from hitting our PS today.
Had a few walk in 5 tops after 12:30. The restaurant seemed a lot busier than it was because it was SO LOUD. Don't know why. Around 1pm I had to hop in the kitchen and work expo until about 1:40. Louis is still new, and then it was just Daniel on Teishoku. We really need a third man on at lunch. With Louis being new and still slow, Daniel was taking the brunt of service on his own. I called tickets, helped where I could, and we pulled through. But we did hit some 20-25 minute tickets. As far as I know there were no complaints. I didn't hit the floor until the rush was over.

Cut to 2 on at 1:40, had about 5 more tables walk in after that as lunch came to a close

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Louis did great for his first solo shift, especially on a rainy day when everyone wanted ramen. Albiet he was very slow, but he didn't make any mistakes. So. Speed comes with time.
-John hosted today and did a great job. Very friendly. He mentioned wanting to get some cocktail training. I think the staff meeting next Thursday with the beverage course will help everyone out.
-Daniel did a great job on fry today. While his station was a bit messy, he did great considering he had to help Louis from time to time.
-Mandy was a good enough sport to be our SA today even though Ara quit last minute (she was supposed to train her). I bought her lunch (since she was supposed to train anyway)
Any VIP's in?
I didn't see anyone during the time I was on the floor. Might have been some while I was in the kitchen

R&M needs:
The vent in the kitchen as well as the vent in the Party Room was leaking when I got in this morning. Called Petrocelli and Joe came out to look. Finally taking some ownership over this and said he will get it fixed. That was like pulling teeth. He said he will be back out once it stops raining.
