Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
So flavors of soft serve were mixed today. Apparently the soft serve machine was suppose to be cleaned out after lunch, and guava was suppose to be added. Dusten noticed the light was on in the beginning of the shift, and added the mix in the cooler. It's not a huge deal, but could have been easily avoided with a little communication, and follow up.  

Very slow start for a Thursday. There was a steady trickle of tables for the first couple hours, but we didn't really fill up and go on a wait until a little before 7pm. Just a handful of tables on the wait until after 8. We had a decent pop between 8-830. Hit a 35-40 minute wait at it's peak. We were off the wait by 9. Cut Liam, Kelly, and 3 on at 9. 2 on at 915. Ticket times were good. No guest issues or controllable comps.

Specials:
Whole Aji- 1

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
Had my 6th interview in a row no-show today. Pretty frustrating. I re-posted the poached ad, and posted on Craigslist as well. Also posted on both sites for dish/prep position.  

-Kelly was super productive and helpful during her down time.
-Liam did well at the host stand tonight. He hadn't worked a shift since his training up there, and seemed to pick it back up quickly.

Any VIP's in?
-John
-Rachel

Comps& Void Detail:
-Bday Comp

R&M needs:
-Swapped out the sushi bar printer with the new one, and put that one back in Fry station. Did a test run, and everything worked throughout the shift. No paper jams tonight.
