Notes about the shift in general:  When I arrived, the dumpster was closed but not locked. When I arrived, I walked the store and found a few areas for detailing opportunities. Ronaldo and Will did a great job maintaining the operation store during my absence. I connected with most of our Reps and informed them that I will be in touch with them next week to go over any product concerns. I spent time with Cynthia going over operations including but not limited to World Cup ordering, product quality, staffing concerns, recent events and large orders. I went over prep quality with Ronaldo, Dina and Leo. The shredded lettuce was sub standard and they explained that the lettuce was coming from the vendor with poor quality. The lettuce came from Houston Avocado. I instructed Ronaldo that if we have to pay a little more, let's look at DiMare for our iceberg lettuce. He said that they are not much better. I contacted Sofo and asked them to get with me next week so that we can look at the...

FRIDAY 2/13/2026 BOH AM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   Starting my shift, everything looked pretty good when I walked in. We already had all the merchandise, so we started bringing everything up and arranging it. I also made the preparation list and handed it out to each station. We started all the preparations, and at 10:00 we began making the pizzas. We also had a ticket for 11:00, so we hurried to make all the pizzas for the front. By the time it opened, we already had everything ready. The ticket went through without any problems, and Cynthia was also working up front selling pizza slices, which made our day easier. So I took advantage of the time to start the break; the whole team had their break. We also finished up some pending preparations. We were always on the move, and at 3:00 we started filling up with a lot of pizzas for the front. I also placed the Houston Avocado order for tomorrow; all the products arrived in good condition. Next shift be on the lookout for: Houston avocado  1.Ho...

THURSDAY 2.12.26 BOH AM WILL

Notes about the shift in general: Received an order from PFG this morning. No large deferred orders, the first half-hour was crickets, and then everyone wanted slices. Between 11:30a and 12:30p almost half the slices we have sold so far today went. Everyone had a good amount of prep leading into the weekend. Leti did not finish her prep and I covered salad/sandwich when Evelin arrived so she could finish it. We cooked pies for the FOH manager meeting to determine where the standards for a regular pie and an extra crispy should be. I went over the cooks with everyone working BOH today (Pedro, Leo, Leti, Juan Carlos, Gabino, Meredith, Evan, Evelin, and Bailey) as well as Gerardo who was on expo. I took photos and conveyed this information to Ronaldo and Raymond. This will be an on going process. In my downtime I placed orders with Houston Avocado, BEK, and SOFO. Next shift be on the lookout for: Deliveries. 1.How many pies did we run on the timesheet?  4 2. KMOD stuff: I made sure e...

TUESDAY 2/10/2026 BOH PM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   We started the day pretty well, then things slowed down a bit around three. Meanwhile, we were refilling the front of the line. When the afternoon shift came in, I took my break. After I went downstairs, I prepared the Houston avocado order. I also cut cheese to help Dina for tomorrow and prepared more Pizza Kids boxes since we were out. When I finished, I did some work on the line, and then at six, I started the break. The whole team took their break. We had a lot of business, and today's specialty was the Sicilian pizza, as it sold quite well. I also worked on the schedule for next week. I also told Evelin to make more sandwich paper to be ready for the weekend, and that's how my shift ended.

MONDAY 2/9/2026 BOH PM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   At the start of the day, we were taking turns at the salad station since Leo didn't show up today because his bicycle was stolen. Everything went well in the end. When the afternoon shift arrived, I took my break. When I came back, I noticed it was quite quiet. I organized the vegetable room and also gave them a jar of cherry peppers to use. I also helped Danilo with the Sicilian pizzas, and today Meredith was making tiramisu and cheesecake. Around six o'clock, I started sending people on their breaks since it was so quiet. I sent them in pairs so I could leave a little earlier since it was so slow, and that's how it all went. The team took their breaks, and that's how I finished my shift. Next shift be on the lookout for: all good 1.How many pies did we run on the timesheet?  4/5 2. KMOD stuff: 3. Food stuff: The Sicilian pizzas look fantastic, as do the pizza slices.
