Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
It was a steady shift today. Filled mostly up by noon. Sushi bar was busier than it has been. Party room was never sat. We never went on a wait, but it was a steady flow most of the shift. Kitchen & Sushi Bar got some decent pops, but everyone handle things well. Thinned a little around 1 so I cut Renee and gave Johnny the back Bs. Had a good amount of late tables today so I didn't go 2 on until 140. Ticket times were solid and no comps today.

Specials:

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Emily was a powerhouse in the kitchen as usual
-John did well with the busy shift today. Received a nice compliment from one of his tables today.
-Johnny struggled a bit after cuts, but was back on track after a little help. I've been trying cut people off the floor semi-early since the sushi bar has been so slow lately. When we're busier he seems a little more focused. When the first half of his shift is so slow, and then he gets a couple of tables at once, it takes a minute for him to jump-start into busy mode. I added it to his eval.    

Any VIP's in?
-Taylor & Girlfrind
-Naoto

-Victoria (Works on commercials, Krystin's sometimes boss)

R&M needs:
-Had a lot of back and forth on the phone with different people from Bugmasters today. I'm trying to get them to fog in here Sat PM/Sun AM. We'll need to be closed on Monday if they can do it, but at this point I think it's our best move. It's pretty short notice, but they are trying to schedule it for us. I'll know for sure tomorrow morning.
-Finally got a hold of Kenneth from Texas Rodent Removal after some back and forth. I'm having some follow up visits scheduled for next week.
