Who worked: LUNCH- Krystin, Lindsey, Grace, Johnny (CL), Taylor (FR), John (SA), Cindy (H)
DINNER- Lindsey, Krystin, Kelly, Ruthy, Clair (CL), Hiroe (FR), Mandy training Maverick (SA), Miriam & Chelsea (H)


Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Lunch was steady. Great hustle from kitchen and sushi bar. No customer issues or long ticket times. Cut Krystin at 1, Lindsey at 1:30, and Grace at 1:45.

Dinner was unusual for a Tuesday. Maybe because of the holidays coming up later in the week? Filled up by 6pm and then just dropped off. So very unbearably slow, I cut Lindsey around 8 and Krystin at 8:30. Around 9:00, we were on a wait again! Kelly, Ruthy, and Clair handled it well. No long ticket times or customer issue. Took 25% off a Ika Yaki that was small in size.

Specials: Aburi Carpaccio 14

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): Lindsey came to me at the beginning of the shift asking not to be first cut at lunch, even though that's what the schedule dictated since she's a double. She said she's short on rent. I obliged. Always happy to help out but it sounded like she flat out over spent this previous weekend.

Mandy had her 2nd training with Maverick as SA. She says he has the speed but he needs to work on consolidation, thoroughly wiping a table, and strength with a tray...all things that will come with time and repetition. It was nice to see Mandy in a leadership role. She took to it well.

Lots of improvement from Kelly. I complimented her attitude, work ethic, and overall appearance. She seems happier lately as well.

Any VIP's in? Victoria, Nathan, Kayo & fam, Rachel & Carlos, Scott & Carolynn
