Manager Communication: I laminated little signs and stuck them in all the over-watered plants asking people not to water them.-LB


FOH Staff Observations:
The woman that came to see Goodnight and Good Luck left a lasting impression on the building. She was using a walker and her anxiety turned to vitriol. Justin was exceptionally patient with her helping her around the building. And a testament to how awful, Jericho helped her at Trees lounge and afterwards he said, "20 years of bartending and that woman was the worst person I have ever dealt with." Pretty accurate sounding based on the subsequent play by plays. Glad Justin helped her because if the elevator door closed on her I am sure she would have burnt the building down.-LB

Hiring/Training: 
Jericho, Day 1.  Went through the checklists for the first day, and we are all caught up with the exception of scans/emails.  Jericho forgot his id, but will bring it tomorrow, and I will send on all completed, signed, and scanned paperwork. JH
Jericho is on top of it. He was given a tour and a light shadow of lobby bar. Then Tevon took him under his wing and he was off to the races. He is a sharp cookie and seems to really just figure stuff out. Super happy to have him join the team. He will definitely be ready to go by day 3.-LB
Tevon's notes: "I like this dude! He seemed to find his footing pretty quick. He said he came from service and we kept him front facing and 5 stars!!" 
I agree with Tevon's notes. He was getting pretty familiar with the POS for the first day.-LB


Prep List: Tevon hooked us up with more Smoke, Simple Syrup (some demerara got in there, have no fear that its a little tinged), Can you dig it. -LB

R&D comp checks:  I did some R&D and will communicate the dollar amount to Gus  upon his return for entering.-LB

Over/Short on Banks:

Pay Outs:

Lost & Found?: A gold ring that looks like knit links was left in Trees, James has it in MOD

Ordering/Receiving/Shipping: 
High Noon arrived before doors, so everything was back in stock for service. JH
Evil Twin arrives tomorrow.-LB
Union Beer arriving Wednesday-LB
Sarene is coming tomorrow to swap the bad pilsner keg-LB
Sarene order coming Wednesday.-LB

Baldor, Homecoming, & US Foods arrived. JH

Maintenance: 
Started service with The Gate That Would Not Open, but it was sorted out before the second round began.  Welcomed guests through the side-door and a special behind-the scenes peek at the Th7 service station for the majority of the first round. JH

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...
