MONDAY 2/2/2026 BOH PM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   It was a pretty quiet Monday; it was too quiet from three o'clock onwards. Around four o'clock we started getting a bit busier at the front counter, and from five o'clock it got really busy. Six o'clock surprised us with a lot of orders, and that's when I started taking breaks, but there were so many pizzas going out for takeout, it was crazy. We even needed Meredith's help wrapping the pizzas; it was that busy. Around seven o'clock it was still very busy, and we didn't have time to keep up with the orders at the front, but we did our best to get everything done. The team took their breaks, and that's how I finished my shift. Next shift be on the lookout for: We might be short on sandwich meat and pizza sauce. Everything else is fine. 1.How many pies did we run on the timesheet?  4/5 2. KMOD stuff: 3.

Notes about the shift in general: We started the day off with deliveries from BEK, PFG, and Houston Avocado. It was a slow shift overall: Leo, Juan, and Dina were all out the door at 3pm.

SUNDAY 2/1/2026 BOH AM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   Starting the day, when I entered the restaurant, everything looked pretty good, so I began with the prep list, delivering supplies to each station. I was helping Don José with the bread knots and realized yesterday that we were going to be short on extra virgin olive oil and buttermilk, so I bought them this morning before coming into the restaurant. Then we started stocking the line, doing prep work starting at 10:00 AM. We started making all the pizzas around 11:00 AM, and by then we had everything ready. We only had one order for 10 pizzas, but it wasn't due until 12:30 PM, so I started taking breaks. The whole team took their breaks, and we were always on the move. A lot of tickets came in, but working as a team, we didn't have any problems. When Belinda arrived around three o'clock, we started making more pizzas for the front counter and preparing a lot of boxes since we didn't have much time because it was quite busy today. When...

Notes about the shift in general:   Starting the day, we were constantly on the move, churning out slices of pizza and sandwiches. Meanwhile, we were also busy restocking the display case with plenty of pizzas. I worked at the oven until the afternoon shift came in, and then I switched to topping the pizzas as it got quite busy. We were selling a lot, and we had to restock the display case with even more pizzas because they were selling like hotcakes. I finally took my break around six o'clock. The whole team took their breaks, and then I checked to make nothings was missing for the next day. I also made sure all the pizza slices looked good before finishing my shift.

Notes about the shift in general: Decent Saturday. Started off a little slow, but picked up for lunch and lots of walk ups throughout the day. I went to the store to grab parmesan and olive oil that looked like it would run out tomorrow. Kept the conversation going with Ronaldo and crew about cook quality.
