Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
It was a busy lunch today. I'm guessing a lot of people had off today, or families were heading back today. We filled up pretty quickly, and were on a 20 min wait by noon. Steady flow of tables that kept us full until after 130. Only a couple tables came in the last 30 minutes. 2 on at 135. Kitchen was solid on ticket times. Sushi Bar got hit pretty hard today. One of Mandy's tables order several rounds off nigiri which always slows things down a bit at lunch. Spencer was helping out, but we had several 25-30 minute tickets. No comps came of it. The servers did a good job communicating with tables, and it seemed like a lot of folks weren't in any hurry. Sales ended up being pretty good, and no controllable comps.  

Specials:

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Melisa helped bus tables with any free time she had during the rush.
-Hiroe was helping bus tables as well on her way back to the kitchen.
-Had a little issue with Mandy doing side work while her section was full. Things were slowing down and her tables had received all their food, but B2 waved me down for a check. After dropping it I ran through her section. Every table needed pre-bussing, A1 wanted a dessert menu, and A2 needed a check as well. I assumed she was in the bathroom, but as I was coming back from her section with a tray full of plates she walked out of the office with a beer box full of drinks for the cooler. Followed up with her at the end of the shift about not ignoring her section while doing side work. It's one of my biggest pet peeves. She said she didn't think she was gone that long, which may be true, but she wasn't keeping an eye on her section.

R&M needs:
-Trash was everywhere this morning. It was overflowing because we didn't get a pick up on Saturday. The driver today just pick up the dumpster and set it on top of the trash. Pretty ridiculous. Drew picked up a lot this morning. Then he, Derek, and myself had to lift the dumpster and pull out all the trash from under it. I called Tony (he's handling the account while Jenna is on maternity leave) and expressed my extreme displeasure about the situation. He gave me a number of the operations manager in case it happens again, but if it's Saturday we have to call before 10 am. So please be proactive if you see the dumpster ever full on Saturday morning. The number is on the contact sheet above the desk.
-Someone(s) tagged all over our roof last night. Pretty annoying. I watched the video, but knew they probably got up on the side of the building without a camera. Someone walked by the front of the building at 1:41 am (4/17/17), but was very aware of our cameras. They pulled on their hoodie, and put a hand up in front of their face as they walked by the side door. I'll add it to the painting projects needed around here.
