Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Mellow Summer Friday overall. Busy but not typical for the start of the weekend. On a wait by 7pm, which quickly rose to 45 minutes to 1 hour wait. Tables were turning quicker than usual, so wait times were a bit off for a small portion of the rush.

Had a walk in 5-top with some issues. "2 of us will only be ordering drinks" said the head of the party as they were sat at B1. About an hour into their meal, they stated that two more people were joining and they needed a bigger table. I explained that we were on an hour wait and as much i'd like to help, it would be inconveniencing people waiting. He asked if we could move A5 over a few feet to tack on some chairs to B1. I politely and firmly said we couldn't. They ended up having 3 of the original eaters leave and two new people joined them. They sat for an additional hour and half. They didn't order much more after that.

Wait died down around 9pm but picked up again and full again by 10pm. I cut Lindset at 9:45 since her section was full. Cut Ruthy and Dan at 10, Johnny at 10:30, and Camacho at 10:50.

Noticed the sushi bar making employee meals before paying customers again. I think this needs to be discussed in the next meeting.

Specials: Snow Crab, Japanese Uni (can someone show me how to find these numbers in the computer?, please and thank you)

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): Even though she wasn't working tonight, Hatha was a big topic of discussion. Apparently she has told several staff members that she's leaving for college at the end of August. News to me. When I originally interviewed her, she said she had deferred for a year to save money. At this point, she's lied about lots of things so her character is in constant question. I wasn't surprised when I called her and she confirmed this. Next week will be her last. Tori has more availability now, I have some interviews set up, and Chloe will be back around the end of August as well.

It's nice to have Lindsey back. I almost forgot how vocal she gets with complaints, so that's going on her eval. Other than that and her toothache, she was in a good spirits.

Renee did a really great job at cocktailing. I'm confident she'll make an excellent server soon.

Any VIP's in? Susan and Jason, Vivienne and Eric
