Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Had a close call with a small cockroach at S1 & S2. It was crawling on the Sushi Bar. There was luckily no one sitting there, but there were 2 ladies at S3&S4. Clair grabbed a napkin and scooped it up before anyone noticed. I sprayed down the sushi bar and cleaned it with bleach tonight. Bugs hate bleach. I think we should probably be cleaning with it a bit more. I asked Toshi to start sweeping behind the coolers as well. There is a lot of food matter behind them.

Lunch was really slow compared to the last few weekends. Maybe the heat is keeping folks indoors. We never filled up or went on a wait. We did have 2 9-tops walk in the first 3o minutes to help keep us busy, but that was the biggest pop we got. I thought we might get a 2pm pop, but never happened. Went 2 on at 2pm, and 1 on at 230pm.

Had to comp a Katsu-don that was a little under cooked. It was a fatter cutlet than normal. Also comped a Gyu-don that Jason misrang. It was suppose to be a Una-don. Both tables were fine once they got their remakes.

Had a few tables waiting when we opened for dinner, but not our usual Sunday line. It quickly filled up by 615, and we hit a 45-50 minute wait by 630. It started slowing down around 845, and we only had a couple tables on the wait by 9. Went 3 on and cut the host at 9. Went 2 on at 930.

Ticket times were really good considering we were short-staffed. Sushi Bar was short a Zero-ban, and Patrick went home sick again.

There might be more to the story with Patrick. It seems like Daniel and him were having trouble getting along, and from Daniel's point of view Patrick kind of walked out. It did seem like Patrick was getting pretty frustrated in the beginning of the shift. I knew he hasn't been feeling well so I just chalked it up to that.
