WEDNESDAY 2.25.26 BOH AM WILL

Notes about the shift in general: When I walked in the building water was dripping from the air vent over the plate and crouton storage next to the roto line. I turned off the air and turned on the vent on top of Marsal, since I know the systems are connected. The drip slowed down and I turned back on the air, no issues for the rest of the day. We had a delivery of mainly Topo Chico from BEK, everything was accounted for. Overall it was a slower shift, with one 8-pie ticket coming in the morning and steady slices all day, but no real action. I cut Juan at 3pm. I talked to Meredith about dish / dessert scheduling next week as we are doing both desserts and are still down a dishwasher. Next shift be on the lookout for: PFG 1.How many pies did we run on the timesheet?  4 2. KMOD stuff: Gerardo has a dishwasher candidate who will come in to interview on Saturday who is looking to work 4 days/week and is available weekend nights. 3. Food stuff: Solid pies, decent Sicilian rise, dressing...

2/25/26 Wednesday Mid w/Raymond

Notes about the shift in general:  When I arrived, the dumpster was closed and locked. When I entered the store I started the PFG truck order. I went over price reductions with our Sofo Rep. I shared the Sofo objective with Charles ad he is going to communicate with Sofo admins to try and obtain better pricing on selected product. We are continuing to closely monitor the enhanced Sub/Salad ticket process and things are working out well. We have a few more team member suggestions to implement. The objective of the Sub/Salad enhance ticket management is to better track tickets and ensure that there is 100% accountability for all tickets. We are back stocked on Topo Chico and we should be good with our supply for a while. As a reminder, Coca-Cola has halted production on Topo Chico for a few months. Will and I went over timely inventory protocols. The shift was a little slow, then we had a pop at approximately 6:45 p.m.. Breaks started at 6:30 p.m. and ended at 7:45 p.m. All BOH te...

2/24/26 Tuesday Mid w/Raymond

Notes about the shift in general:  When I arrived, the dumpster was closed and locked. When I entered the store I started the BEK truck order. There may be a potential shortage on Topo Chico water due to Coca-Cola halting production on the product until June 2026. I ordered a back stock of the product. We are looking to higher a full-time cook to replace Raymundo and Julio. The shift was slow even for a Tuesday. I reviewed vendor product prices, looking for cost savings. I followed up with the newly implemented ticket process at Sub/Salad. The team offered a few suggestion that will be incorporated into the process. Breaks started at 6:30 p.m. and ended at 7:00 p.m. All team members were able to take breaks.

TUESDAY 2/24/2026 BOH AM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   When I started my shift, everything looked pretty good. Everything was in order. I began by handing out the prep list at each station with Pedro. We started filling orders on the line and also doing some prep work. We had a ticket for 15 pizzas by 10:40, as well as a Party Salad order. We hurried and started making all the pizzas for the front, then we started on the larger ticket. By 11:00, we had everything ready. The large ticket went smoothly. I started the breaks; the whole team took their break starting at 1:00. Things slowed down a bit. We finished some prep work, and I also set out two bread recipes for today. I received Houston Deli, and everything is in order. I also gave someone a Cherry Pepper to make since things were slow, and today Dina showed me how to make cookie dough, taking advantage of the fact that things were a bit slow. Around 3:00, Lety left. Pedro also left. I was alone for 40 minutes. There were no problems since things...

SUNDAY 2/22/2026 BOH PM REONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   It was a pretty good day, we were always on the go, making a lot of pizzas for the front shift when the afternoon shift started. I took my break when I came downstairs. I was helping out on the line, covering pizzas, which was pretty good. I usually go out around six. I started my break around 6:30, and it got pretty busy. We were getting way too many pizzas, as well as sandwiches and salads; it was so much that we even needed Raymond's help. Some orders took a little longer because there were so many. We were very busy for an hour and a half, and from 7:40 onwards it calmed down a bit. Then we were filling up the whole line and making more pizzas for the front shift. The whole team took their break, and I saw that we were short on root. I cut one for Krispy Kerosene. And I did a walkthrough to make sure we wouldn't be missing anything for tonight. Next shift be on the lookout for: stay tuned for preparations 1.How many pies did we run on the...
