Saturday 06.10 Jenn/Edgar



Manager Communication: Pretty busy afternoon, evening, and late round today. The bulk of service was spent on theater drinks as Trees was relatively calm considering the amount of people in the building. EA

BAR Staff Observations: It was a mellower first round than last weekend, so service was pretty smooth throughout the day.  Andrea was well-prepped for ST&B, and Natasha set up Trees with cut citrus.  Once mids came in, I had them both hang out at Trees to navigate some sold out Spider-Man screenings.  Matthew and Andrea both went down to lobby once Gabrielle arrived, and I pulled Natasha to get some batching done after restocks were done. JH

Mids and closers absolutely crushed it. Maya and Matthew ran the ticketing and drink tickets for the ground floor with relative ease. At times even coming upstairs to check on Trees. Ashley, Ian, and Gabrielle took care of everyone @ Trees as per usual. Busy, yet organized and easy shift with the team today. EA

FOH Staff Observations: There were some real bottlenecks at Trees' service pass today during the dinner and late round where drinks were backing up at the pass. I had to stop the service several times to let let servers catch up. During both the dinner and late rounds, the tickets came all at once and was only manageable because trees wasn't busy. I'm not entirely sure what the cause is, but it is disruptive to the flow of service at the bar when we're waiting for drink runners to finally come down. 

On a more positive note, Atlas is a complete rockstar and was always willing to throw their hands in to help whenever they had any free time. EA

Special Events? Pretty mellow ST&B crowd. JH

Staff Meeting Agenda notes: On Saturday/Sunday opens, can opening managers turn the frozen machines on once they get in?  With the weather getting warmer and the ac not running overnight, the machines struggle to freeze the product in time for doors if opening bartenders/bar manager switch them on at 9:30. 

Spoke with FedEx again and set up another pick up for Monday.  I asked why they have missed the previous four pick ups, and the agent on the phone said that there were no notes on any of the previous requests that would explain the situation.  The confirmation number is: CPU370031610. JH

86ed / counts on items: NA beer is on a count. 

Prep List: Used the last of the Bloody concentrate to make Bloody Mary this morning.  We should be fine for the remainder of the weekend, but should definitely make more concentrate Monday/Tuesday to get ahead of it.

I will be picking up more n/a blue curaçao Monday morning to finish off the Part of Your World batch that Ian started. JH

Welcome back Eliel!

To add to the above, we have no more Part of Your World in the back, but might be able to get through Sunday's service.

Other things I spotted that we needed: Spider-Man Drink, Junglebird, Lemonade, and Strawberry Lemonade (everyone has been just ripping through this.) EA

Pay Outs: $150.00 (DJ Ariel) JH

Lost & Found?: There was an infant's jean jacket left at Trees. I moved it to the lost and found bin in the lobby. EA

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...
