Manager Communication: A very busy morning to set things off; some drab weather had the early shows generate some great sales. Several sold out theatres. Dumbo is dragging a bit, as is Aftermath but Us killed it again, selling out or nearly selling out all of its showtimes except for the very latest ones tonight (folks gotta work in the morning). Flow of tickets and service was well managed, cut to one drink runner after the 7s and then down to none for the latest shows tonight with servers running their drinks with some manager support. Overall a very steady day, bar business held well until 10 PM. Cut lobby bar after the last showtime, routed up and got it closed quickly. Down to 2 bartenders at HiRes after the 7s as well.

Customer Comments:

BAR Staff Observations: Jay and Caleb both did a really nice job not just asking to be cut, but giving me a list of things they saw needing batching/organization. We stayed well stocked with drinks and garnishes for the rushes, probably the smoothest day for that I've seen (no need to run back panicked mid rush).

FOH Staff Observations: New servers are really promising, big ups to Ellie who took sections and was out at the bar running drinks.

Hiring/Training:

Sick Leave/ Call outs:

Special Events?

Staff Meeting Agenda notes:

86ed / counts on items: Gun Hill IPA (every keg seemed worse than the last, they are all dated March but the beer is possibly not even the IPA; the taste is more like their Gold session ale than the IPA)

Prep List: All cocktails batched and consolidated. The walk in got a very thorough organizing today. Tomorrow would be a great day with the shelves cleaned and organized to hit the floors by the kegs.

R&D comp checks:

Over/Short on Banks:

Pay Outs:

Lost & Found?:

Ordering/Receiving/Shipping: Big Geyser Tuesday, on the bar order sheet and updated

Maintenance: With frozen machines now on both sides of the bar in HiRes on the back bar, the wood has fully split all the way across and is getting very hard to clean out and keep dry.

Manager Communication:  Another very busy day, with Th1/2/3/4 pretty well sold, or sold out, for multiple rounds.  Nonstop from the moment doors opened. JH Pretty much same here for the evening. Very busy up until the last round, and lots of business at Trees. - IP Customer Comments:  Some guests this afternoon had an issue with Miguel's service at Lobby, and spoke to me about it.  I sent an email summarizing their complaints and what happened to upper management, in case they reach out in the future. JH BAR Staff Observations:  Busy from the moment doors opened, with both bars navigating sold out theaters throughout the day.  Patrick was a big help with second round rushes and getting the first push of special event drinks out at Trees. JH Patrick and Darius had a good rapport in lobby tonight, which was really great to see. Jeshua and Bryan were excellent at Trees tonight for multiple sold out rounds and a pretty steady bar crowd all night. We had some gl...

Manager Communication: Matthew and Miguel came in ready to crush this brunch. The Wizard of Oz, Wonka, and Poor Things all had great drinking crowds. Kelsey came in at 11AM & swung up to support Trees. Once Tevon got in we knocked out plenty of batches and syrups. We were able to cut openers soon after. -AB The Coconut Lime Slushie side of the frozen machine continues to be an issue. I don't understand because it's in the same style machine in Lobby, on the same setting. What do we do? (crying emoji, crying emoji). -AB We ran out of the Piña Colada umbrellas today. I was having bartenders just put a cherry in there. -AB2 I also no longer have access to this blogger anymore so I'm typing here from Ashley's account. -AB2 Customer Comments: Not a specific customer, but I noticed this weekend a lot of N/A Spritzers were being rung in "not too sweet". In this instance, bartenders simply cut the recipe with a little club soda. I haven't seen any physically s...

Manager Communication: The soda gun at Trees Lounge is having issues with Diet Coke. It has moments of coming out with no syrup. There is syrup in the bag still so I think Coca cola should be contacted to have it checked out before it is a further issue. -LB Super busy Sunday chilled out for a chill evening. -LB Customer Comments: While helping out Josef in the lobby today I had an idea that might streamline his tendency to takeover the attention of the lobby bartender or floor manager (or anyone who stops to chat, haha). Since he usually calls in to get his tickets beforehand, we know when he's going to be coming in - since he ALWAYS asks what movies we have coming up, and if we will have x, y or z - maybe we can print out an easily readable piece of paper with the upcoming schedule (as we know it) that we can hand to him and tell him all the information is on the paper. I know it probably won't change anything at all, but rather than have him bug someone to pull up the sched...
