Saturday 6.2 Jesse



Manager Communication: A slow morning gave way to a very busy night. Sold out 7s almost entirely, huge walk in pushes bumped the late rounds up as well. The flow of showtimes downstairs was rough, with 3 & 5's simultaneous seatings giving us huge ticket/guest facing and drink pushes all at once. Gil and myself were behind the bar on several occasions to handle guests while Jenn held down a serious drink rush. Upstairs was a bit more evenly staggered but still very busy for the 7s and late rounds. Got a nice bar crowd through midnight as well that kept 3 bartenders busy. Cut down to 1 down at 10:30 pm, Susan got lots of batching done before leaving. Will was needed behind the bar until his cut at 11:30 pm. Cut the bar runner after the rush of the 7s, MODs did a great job designating servers to drink run and they held it down.

Customer Comments: Had a guest show up at 8:00 pm for the 8:00 pm Detective Pikachu. He and his friend could not find seats together. He kept repeating that he "bought tickets ahead of time, two days ago". I explained that that guarantees that he will have seats, which are available to him. He transferred tickets to tomorrow's showing, then came back and said that didn't work for his schedule. He took an e-gift card instead.

BAR Staff Observations: Let's give it up for Jenn, who keeps calm and composed in the most stressful of situations and was a champion tonight. Ryan, Dylan and William were a real dream team upstairs as well, handling a 2-deep bar and sold out shows. Everyone was on tonight, it was great.

FOH Staff Observations: Sarah B., Henry and Kevin were very proactive getting to the bar. Beau also did a nice job.

86ed / counts on items: 86'd the Pride cocktail late as we did not have any charged back ups.

Prep List: Had a huge prep by Susan done tonight, going into tomorrow strongly ready. May just need more Sun Down and Firewalk, but not to get things going. Later in the day.

Pay Outs: $23 for Grapes

Ordering/Receiving/Shipping: Baldor Monday, Coke Thursday

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...
