Who worked: Lindsey, Liam, John, Johnny CL, Emily FR, Brennan SA, Tori H

Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Pretty tame. We had a pop about noon. Things tapered quickly. Sushi bar was missing Mandrew for the initial rush due to traffic on his way back from a delivery. That backed up things a bit for the bar. Only one table, our regular Fastball got his food much later than his companion. Sent out a couple Iwashi to smooth things over. I cut Lindsey at 1pm, Liam at 1:30pm, John and Brennan at 1:45pm. Had a woman walk in at 1:59 saying her party was incomplete and they were two. We sat her and advised her to call them and place an order for them. That worked.

Specials:

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): Brennan could be faster. Again, I don't know if his pace matches our business level

Any VIP's in? Old John, Victoria, Fastball singer, Mr. Funk of Funk and Associates*

Comps& Void Detail: employee bucks for Tori. She is going to help me with a project.

R&M needs: *Mr. Funk (and his associates) wanted to sit and eat outside. I don't blame them! But we also didn't let them. They had a little dog that they put in their car. Outside temp was still in the low 70's. I did get an up-and-down look from Mr. Funk when I told them we couldn't serve food outside. They sat at B7. Tori mentioned to me after about 20 minutes that she thought that may have just killed a bug. I didn't really want to go and just ask about roach sightings, so I had Lindsey offer them a dessert for the no-outside-eating thing. They declined but Lindsey also said they seemed to have a genuinely good time. They tried the Endo roll for the first time, loved it and ordered a second. Still, I was nervous that I'd already told Saul Goodman he couldn't eat outside with his cocker-spaniel and now he's squishing vermin while eating his lunch. I don't know where the threshold lies for us to seriously consider maximum effective exterminations measures, but this incident, concluded or not, ought to be a push further in that direction.
