7/8/26 Wednesday Mid w/Raymond

  Notes about the shift in general:  When I arrived, the dumpster was closed and locked. I walked the store and confirmed inventory . I had a very lengthy interaction with a houseless man that confronted some of guests and tried to enter the building. At one point, the man stated to drink out of the fountain. I called both HPD and Seal. Seal arrived first and then a constable. I felt empathy for the man until I saw the constable attempt to put handcuffs on him. He ran like an Olympic sprinter and the officer took two steps to chase him and said Woow!  The constable called for assistance and believe it or not, the man came right back when additional officers were there. The chase was on again.  World Cup Fan Fest ends on 7/19/26. Hopefully that will draw additional traffic downtown. I spent some time working on training material.  The shift started slow and then picked up at 6:45 p.m.  Breaks start 6:00 p.m. and ended at 7:30 p.m.  All team members we...

TUESDAY 7/7/2026 BOH AM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   When I arrived to start the day, everything was in good shape—neat and clean. I began with the prep list. Then, Pedro and I restocked the line and started on the prep work. I handled two bread recipes, and we also made cheesecake. Around 10:00, we started making pizzas for the front counter. By 11:00, everything was ready. We started the day selling plenty of slices but no whole pizzas. I began scheduling breaks; the whole team took theirs, and we finished up some prep work, though the day was quite slow. Lety was scheduled to leave at 3:00, but I sent her off around 12:30. Once the afternoon crew arrived, I used the time to order avocados and managed to leave a little early myself, since it was such a slow day. Next shift be on the lookout for: Houston avocado 1.How many pies did we run on the timesheet?  4/5 2. KMOD stuff: 3. Food stuff: The Sicilian pizzas look quite delicious, as do the pizza slices; the dressings and pizza sauces have a...

MONDAY 7/6/2026 BOH PM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   It was a pretty slow start to the day on Monday; once Juan and Leo left, Will and I were manning the line, and absolutely no orders were coming in. We only had two large orders—one at 5:30 and the other at 6:30. Things started picking up gradually after five o'clock, with quite a few pizzas and salads going out. Around six, I started sending people on their breaks. That was when it got incredibly busy—especially in the pizza area, where a lot of orders were coming through—but we worked as a team, and everything went out on time. The whole team got their breaks, and I checked to make sure everything was set for the evening. Things calmed down a bit around seven, and Meredith started making tiramisu and cheesecake for the next day. Next shift be on the lookout for: We are up to date with all the preparations. 1.How many pies did we run on the timesheet?  4/5 2. KMOD stuff: 3. Food stuff: The Sicilian slices turned out really well today. They w...
