Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Solid lunch. Started off good, then we got hit with some large parties around noon. Had a walk in 8 top that was incomplete for about 15 minutes, then when everyone was here we were full.  They were getting antsy, some had to get back to work, so I told them I could seat half of them at separate tables while we waited for the last table to get up. I sat 2 at B6 and 2 at B8, waiting for B7 to get up, since they had just paid. The guys sat for a little longer than I thought they would be finally they got up. The weirdest thing happened- the only guy in the 8 top of nurse ladies, got up off the bench and as the guys from B7 were exiting, he walked up to one of the guys, I thought he knew them, he was so close I thought he was going to hug him, but then he just stood there and made the guy from B7 go around him. It was the strangest thing. I reminded the guy that I had to clean the table first, but man he must have been hangry.

Had another 10 top walk in around 1:15 and a steady flow of tables in right up until 2pm. I only cut kelly around 1 because she was a double. Solid for a Tuesday though.

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Alex can be exhausting sometimes. He has a lot of ideas, and I'm happy to hear them, but there are other times he needs to quiet down. I think it's starting to get to some of the staff members too,which may not be good, considering we want him to be a leader and coach to them. Just something to keep an eye on for now.
-Kelly was in a super positive mood and was on her game today. She did great. Just worth noting.

Any VIP's in?
