FRIDAY 10/23/2026 BOH AM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   At the start of my shift, all the merchandise had already arrived, so we began organizing it and moving all the boxes into place. Next, I started working on the prep list. From 10:00 AM, we began restocking the line. We started preparing all the pizzas for the front service area, and by around 11:00 AM, everything was ready. The whole team also took their scheduled breaks. It was a good shift—we stayed busy the entire time, finishing up some additional prep work. From 3:00 PM onwards, as the afternoon crew arrived, we continued restocking pizzas for the front. I used the remaining time to get the avocados ready for tomorrow and organized the vegetable walk-in cooler. I checked everything, and it’s all in good order.

TUESDAY 10/2026 BOH PM RONALDO

Notes about the shift in general:   At the start of the shift, things were going very well; there was a steady flow of customers. Later, it quieted down a bit. We finished up some prep work, and out front, pizza slices were selling quite well, so we restocked with plenty of pizzas. Lety left at 3:30, just before the afternoon crew arrived. We then restocked more pizzas for the front, and I spent some time covering them. Orders kept coming in—much like in the salad area—though the front section was a bit quiet. From six o'clock onwards, I began managing the breaks. Everyone on the team took their break, and I made sure everything was in order.
