9/17/26 Thursday Mid w/Raymond

Notes about the shift in general:   I attended bi-weekly Ops meeting. When I arrived, the dumpster was closed and locked. I walked the perimeter and everything was as it should be.   I walked the store and confirmed inventory . I placed the BEK, SOFO and Hilltop Deli truck orders. All invoices were scanned to Xtra Chef. I am working on the Food Labor spreadsheet. I published FOH, K-Mod and BOH schedules. I received a notice of bankruptcy for Republic National Distributing. Mettler responded to my notification.  We had a 20 pie order go out on time at 10:45 p.m. It was a much needed boost in sales. Bailey had to intervene, stopping an individual from stealing a cookie while standing at the front counter. Bailey had to remove the cookie from his person and asked him to leave. The shift was steady with small pops. Breaks started at 6:00 p.m. and ended at 7:45 p.m. All team members took their breaks.  Next shift be on the lookout for:  09/19 Saturday 6:...

THURDAY 9.17.26 BOH AM WILL

Notes about the shift in general: Chill shift. Prep was the main focus today. Dough team prepped another two batches of sub bread after yesterday. Our normal slicer sharpener rep from Cozzini Bros is on vacation and his replacement just changed one box of slicers, not knives or line slicers. So I called them up and they came back and fixed it. It was slow so Pedro went home at 2:30, Dina at 3pm, and Leti at 3:30pm. Of course Leo and I got slammed at 3:40p, but I had Bailey cover slices and we knocked it out.

WEDNESDAY 9.16.26 BOH AM WILL

Notes about the shift in general: I started off the day putting away the BEK order and organizing. Everything was accounted for minus 3 dented cans of Bonta that I tracked, slacked, and marked the invoice for. As I was writing the prep lists I noticed the roto reach in cooler was out. Pedro and I moved it, the GFCI was tripped. Everything was still temping in the 44-45 degree range so I decided to keep product and notified Raymond. I followed up with Danilo, Juan Carlos, Noe, and Ramona so that they are sure to check this at the end of the night. Nick from AutoChlor came by to top us off. He is being promoted so after next month he will no longer be our guy, but will be supervisor to our new guy. We went up on floor break. I will get with the team but especially Iran since he is new to go over usage. Start of the day was standard with mainly slices and a few smaller tickets. At 12:40 a couple of guests came in looking to feed a large group 20 pies. Andrew consulted with me, I gave them...

TUESDAY 9/15/2026 BOH AM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   When I started my shift, everything was clean and organized. I began with the prep list. I also mixed two batches of dough, and today we started stocking the line together with Pedro. We began prep work at 10:00 AM. We started making all the pizzas for the front counter so everything would be ready by the time we opened. I also started scheduling breaks at that time; the whole team took their breaks. It was a bit slow today—likely due to the roadwork, which makes parking difficult for customers. We also received an order for 10 pizzas and four gallons of lemonade; we had enough on hand, but that order depleted our supply, so I mixed another batch of lemonade to ensure we had enough for the evening. That order was due at 4:40 PM. Andrew noticed that the freezer used for the Ranch dressing and cheesecakes wasn't cooling properly and informed Raymond; we checked the temperature to see if the cheesecakes needed to be discarded, but the temperature wa...
