And I'm chuckling at this. Like... it's Tuesday. I did ordering, and talked with vendors. I coordinated expenses with the other owners, I fired someone straight off the line. Another is in the psych ward for a suicide attempt yesterday. Therefore I have one person on the line. Do what it takes. I double up on middle and grill, our fry guy goes to saute, our salad guy goes to fry, our dessert chica goes to salad, and we're blank on desserts until late afternoon when the other dessert person gets in.
