Manager Communication: 
My friend dropped off two smaller Vitamix containers (he replaced his with steel), I will check to see that we can use them with our power units tomorrow. If they do I might see if Esther can live with one base unit and a few full size tops.-LB

I reorganized the liquor island and shifted it over to the right to provide clearance for the ladder to access the ceiling hatch. I tested it out and there is ample room for the ladder. I also reconfigured the island to make more sense, and am happy to report that WE HAVE SO MUCH ROOM FOR ACTIVITIES (and all the liquor is organized by type and neatly stacked). - IP

Customer Comments:
We had a large group of friends from Freddy's bar come in and hang and see a movie - there was some confusion regarding several of their drinks that were not marked to be a buyback, so I manager comped those remaining items and left a note on the check (ticket #K8 - labeled "Buyback for Freddy's Folx") - IP

BAR Staff Observations:  
Good vibes rocking out some busy brunch seatings. Had Greg float upstairs to work with Natasha since she doesn't feel 100% and isn't bartending at the speed of two people.-LB
Smooth afternoon. Bar team held there own while I got some batching done. Natasha stuck around to make sure everyone had a chance to eat family meal.  Hope she feels better for Tuesday trivia.  Busy pushes all around.  Nice to have even distribution throughout the building. -LB

Jeshua and Patrick were wonderful in Trees, and Charlie held it down in the lobby. Hung onto Nia until about 6:30, then she got out of here. The bar stayed busy until around 8p when it quieted down, but the theater rushes were still rockin'. All in all, a busy night handled with aplomb. - IP

FOH Staff Observations:
Jay is really great. Incredible attention to detail (sometimes to a fault, haha) but he has really loosened up amongst the staff and it's been nice to see. - IP
Conner was a standout tonight, as he went above and beyond to help Lobby bar getting glasses from the kitchen. Great team player. - IP

Special Events? 
Sundays on fire, double demon sing along. 

86ed / counts on items:
We are on our last Pilsner keg, and as far as I can tell we have no more cases of Rose (still plenty at bars and unpacked on shelf, just don't have a big backstock atm). 
-Autohypnotic... - 87 count - IP

Prep List: 
Chili Salt, Tea, bloody Mary mix, bounty law, Froco, Paloma milk punch-LB

Made and charged a Collins keg, and made the backup OF keg. Left a list for Monday and mid-week batching on the whiteboard - only must make for tomorrow is Juniper Syrup. - IP

Pay Outs:
5200 - $12.79 - IP

Lost & Found?:
William Grace left a blue Chase card at Trees - it's in the lost card rolodex. - IP

Ordering/Receiving/Shipping: 
Harney and Sons ordered.-LB

If not ordered yet, more Pilsner and more Rose. - IP

Maintenance: 
The coffee grinder in lobby got clogged. Glad it is not broken-LB
 
Mobilebytes Issues: 
The Hot Toddy button and optional add on mixer butter for the well whiskey is gone.-LB

Filmbot Issues:
The filmbot card reader and printer were being finnicky again today, so I showed the new bartenders how to trouble shoot when that happens. After we addressed the issue everything got back on track. - IP

Manager Communication: Wyatt and I opened up the building in preparation for a very busy "Do the Right Thing" - otherwise it was a very quiet.  We don't get the FOH blog, so Ian didn't know about the grease trap back up, which caused some confusion this morning. Vlad said he would get to the drain in theaters 1/2 another day since today was a literal washout.-LB I put signs up to tell people to not put bags on the top of the ice machines, not considering the language barrier of Markenson etc.  I went through it with him after he replaced the boxes because he is so thorough, I believe he understood what I meant. -LB Timothy needs to get a run down about wearing an ear piece, he left his walkie on the water station, didn't even realize it. I worry he would not hear us if we walkie him. -LB Customer Comments: I half-comped a salad for a guest that was generous enough to move so two people could sit together, I didn't note that on the check, by accident. It was i...

Manager Communication: Not much really happened tonight. Slow night in Tree's. - AB2 BAR Staff Observations: Gabrielle took the early cut since Tevon was willing to stick it out. Smooth sailing with no major kids films popping off.-LB I got Tevon out of here shortly after my arrival around 5. I then got Patrick out around 6:45.

Manager Communication: GATE UPDATE: The gate was weird coming down today. It opened yesterday without issue. But it kind of needs to be put up then down. It is a few inches from the ground, safe enough for us, but definitely something to keep an eye on. -LB Opened the building with Wyatt - No Budge was sold out but chill, same with the first couple screenings of Minecraft. Other than one absolutely dreadful guest (more on that below), everything was super smooth. - IP Ordered Green goblin since Theater 2 was having a drain back up. -LB Having Trees open to the public during this party is fine, however I think we need to avail the Trees cocktails to those customers but have to mitigate those being ordered when it is this busy. -LB I tested the Brix for To infinity. It is 15. I think the issue is the coconut milk (oil) and other ingredients have different freezing temps. I think if we push the mix every few hours it will be fine, but happy to adjust recipe if needed. -LB Ordered 2 cases ...
