Flow of Business, Cuts and Ticket Times:
Seemed like we were going to have another busy Saturday. Early rush with an 11-top at 1130 and several other 5-tops and 2 6-tops. Hit a wait by noon and stayed on a steady 20-30 minute wait for the next hour and a half. Oddly it just sorta died out at 2 when normally we would be getting that final push. Kitchen got a nice pop at 2 from that final seating, but handled it well. Ticket times were great all around today.

Specials:

3 Staff members that stood out (why/how):
-Kody came in and told me he wasn't feeling very well today, and asked if he could possibly go early. I went ahead and cut him around 1215, because he was dragging so hard. Everyone did a great job helping Beorn out for the rest of the shift. I was a little disappointed I didn't get to work with Kody today and try and coach him into some better habits and speed. I'll work with in the beginning of next week.
-Ellen definitely struggles a bit with volume, and tends to do things one at a time. She needs to really work on the art of consolidation.
-Had a new potential host start this morning, Leah. She interviewed with Devin and I really well, and seemed like a good hire. Started on a weird note when filling out paper work. I had the feeling after talking with her for about 5 minutes that she wasn't going to last, but wanted to see how the shift goes. Also, seemed like she might be slightly intoxicated from the night before according to Alyssa. She came up to me about 2 hours into the shift, and said it wasn't a good fit for her. I happily shook her hand, and wished her the best of luck. Glad it worked itself out.
