BAR Staff Observations: 
Since numbers were low, I reached out to Darius to offer him a cut, as he had picked up Natasha's shift.  He took the cut and we ran with two bartenders at each bar without issue.

Patrick and Tevon opened both bars to a quiet first round, and I was able to get Tevon out of here once closers were in and we got ahead of some batching.  Bryan held down Lobby solo, and emptied and cleaned the FWWM tumbler that keeps overfreezing.  Matthew and Patrick got through the big theaters dinner push, and Patrick was going to get out of here once the last Th1 service rush died down. 

Sick Leave/ Call outs: 
Gus let us know this morning that he was feeling very unwell, and was able to get to a doctor.  He believes he will be well enough to come in tomorrow.  Paul moved Gus' closing shift to Sick and I'm going to stick around until 9:00pm to give bar coverage during the dinner rounds.

Prep List: 
We will need to make an Old Fashioned and Negroni keg sometime this weekend, maybe tomorrow, if possible.

Pay Outs: 
$11.99 (Juan - Rubbing Alcohol & Hydrogen Peroxide) 

Ordering/Receiving/Shipping: 
Baldor & US Foods arriving tomorrow. 

Received a message from Stumptown today that their order window for Tuesday deliveries has been pushed back to Thursday before 2:00pm.  I updated the Vendor Doc instructions.

Maintenance: 
Dio's guys came in this morning to check out the upstairs ice machine, as it has been giving us some issues the last two weeks.  Turns out some of the wiring had gotten sucked into the ventilation fan, which was what had caused the issue.  They were able to move the wires to a more secure distance and the ice machine seemed to be working fine after they left. 

The Lobby FWWM keeps over freezing to a dangerous degree. So we turned off the machine to give it time to defrost, and Bryan emptied and cleaned that tumbler tonight. Let’s leave it empty until techs can get in, because there is clearly something wrong with the temperature gauge and continued overfreezing may just cause more damage.

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...
