FRIDAY 9.25.26 BOH AM WILL

Notes about the shift in general: We had deliveries from BEK, SOFO, Houston Avocado, Houston Deli, and Alsco today. Everything was kosher except I don't think Alsco left an invoice or checked with anyone, once again. I boxed up the Bartlett pears, HA dropped off the D'andjou pears. Pedro showed me that the pin that was part of the door system that was installed yesterday had already broken and nothing was being held in place. I slacked it, Mettler reached out to roto and responded to try with the broken piece. We modified it, took the hood off roto, put it in place and bent the ends so it would not fall off again. This set us behind in setting up Marsal. I helped the team out. Also helped with garlic knots, putting away and organizing goods, finishing off two batches of bread, and cooking 60 cookies. Around 10:40am tablet orders started coming in full force. Andrew was very good in checking and communicating times for each ticket. We had a 13-pie, 8-pie, and 11-pie ticket come ...

THURSDAY 9.25.26 BOH AM WILL

Notes about the shift in general: We started off the day with a delivery from PFG. Everything checked out. Mettler arrived shortly after with the roto repair crew who replaced the door mechanism for Roto. He was a little worried that they would not be done in time to use roto to set up for the day, but they finished at 9:30am giving us just enough time to get Roto up to temp. The day was solid, a little busier than it's been all week. There were more 4-6 pie tickets for roto today. I printed out more dough count and waste logs and ordered produce in my downtime. Next shift be on the lookout for: Deliveries from BEK, SOFO, Houston Avocado, and Houston Deli.  1.How many pies did we run on the timesheet?  4 3.

I placed the BEK truck order. All invoices were scanned to Xtra Chef. I am working on the Food Labor spreadsheet.  I received a request from the City of Houston City Counsel for a pie donation.

TUESDAY 9/22/2026 BOH AM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   When I started my shift, everything was in good shape. I began with the prep list and helped Jose and Gerardo with the bread knots—since they had two bread recipes to make, I wanted to lighten their workload. Pedro handled restocking the line. Once we finished that, I helped Pedro with prep and also set up the salad station, as we were short-staffed today. Will came in to help at 10:00 AM because we had an order for salads and pizzas due at 10:40 AM. We started with the pizzas for the front counter first. We got the order out on time, and by 11:00 AM, everything was ready. I took my break; the day was fairly slow while we finished up some prep work. Around 1:00 PM, we started making a lot of pizzas for the front counter. Will left at 1:30 PM, leaving just the two of us. Pedro and I took turns on the line; there were no issues since it was a bit slow—we only had one order for six pizzas due at 4:15 PM. After that, another order came in for 12 pizz...

MONDAY 9/21/2026 BOH PM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   The shift started off pretty quietly today; Juan and Leo left at three. Will and I stayed behind and took turns at the salad station; things were calm and there were no issues. The afternoon crew arrived, and around five o'clock, tickets started coming in little by little, though the flow wasn't constant—it felt fairly relaxed. I had the team prep some cherry peppers, and Meredith spent time cleaning the lids of the seed containers. Around six, I began handling the breaks, covering for everyone, and checked to make sure we were fully stocked on all products for the evening. 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-style pizzas saw a pretty good boost today, as did the dressings and pizza sauces. They have a really good flavor. 4. Sales for the shift:  3,768 5.
