Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times: Lunch was stready Slow start but things picked up by noon. Got a pop at 1pm that put us on wait for a little over an hour. Cut Renee just after 2pm, John at 2:30. No ticket time issues, but still cold food going out to tables.
-Dinner was slower than the past few weeks. We had a short wait from about 7pm-8:30 but nothing crazy. Daruma staff came in and certainly made the most of their deep clean party. They were our highest table by far. No ticket time issues or under cooked food at dinner. I cut Grace, John, Tori and Megan at 8:30, Cindy at 8:45, Krystin at 9:30 and Ruthy at 9:45.

Specials: 17 wings special, 1 salmon katsu, 21 nigiri sets and 1 aji sashimi (sold at lunch)

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how): Krystin had a tough lunch. Lots of low tips. Can't imagine that ever being on account of her service. Her Dinner more than made up for it however. She and Grace switched section for dinner and Krystin took the Daruma party. She also won $20 in Kome bucks for the Nihon Sakari sake sales contest. She sold at least 2 bottles plus some glasses.
-Grace says she feels Krystin was a little duplicitous regarding the Daruma party when she asked to switch sections. I originally had Grace with the PPR and Krystin in the back B's. Krystin offered to let me read the text exchange. I reluctantly agreed to look at them. There is no mention of Daruma, but "Kayo and folks." Krystin specifically says the table would be good money. Grace mentions her shifts at Kemuri being very busy and not minding working in the back B's. Ultimately I think Grace is upset with herself for letting the section go. Still, she needs to keep that to herself, or at least steer clear of accusing anyone of misrepresenting facts.
-John can be a bit overbearing when greeting tables. Sometimes he barely gives them a chance to sit down before he is all over them. It might be good to at least say hi if you happen to be close by if we are super busy and just offer waters, but we weren't busy in the moment and he just comes off as pushy.
-Renee was more self-aware this Sunday with regards to her table interactions. We talked a bit further about her school and financial responsibilities. She has a lot on her plate. I told her of she feels fewer shifts so that she can concentrate on school, she needs to make that known before the schedule is written.
-Tori has the key for the paper towel dispenser. She accidentally took it home on her break and changed clothes. We should get big obnoxious key chains for the paper towels and the trailer keys. Like a truck-stop restroom key with a hubcap on them or something!
-Leigh was fairly slow at times. She seemed tired all day. She stayed moving but wasn't too swift about it. Also, she clocked in as host for her PM. Aloha won't let me access the clock-ins for the current day.

Any VIP's in? Lunch: I saw Emma Blauer leaving without even getting the chance to say hi. She was a server here when I started. I think the only other one who'd know her was Kazu and he didn't notice her either. Kindo-san.
Dinner: Peelander Z, Daruma folks.
Michael Clarke- he and his wife always order the Krab salad as a side. Nice people but needy and odd. They left their credit card also. There is a Michael C in Resy, but wasn't sure if that was him- Megan apparently took the wrong phone number so when they were seated Tori had to go looking for them... so I couldn't call them about their card either.
