    Dough Rounder decision

    Anyone here scaling that quick? That’s impressive… I wonder what their tolerance for accuracy is? Also, that scale must be very fast because I see some of those cuts on there for only a few milliseconds… Sheesh

    Ask Tom Lehmann a Question

    Tom, I was bored and started toying around with the dough calculator and ended up with this recipe which seems to be in line with typical NY style recipes on the net: Flour (100%)s Water (63%) CY (1%) Salt (2%) Oil (2%) Total (168%) The flour: 25lbs of bromated All Trump My procedure: Add...

    Pizza boxes made in China

    All the vendors that we use offer to warehouse our boxes for us. Might be a volume thing though I’d guess.

    Pizza boxes made in China

    When I mentioned buying boxes from china to our current box rep, he mentioned the same thing about toxic materials. Who knows. Sales people will definitely tell you anything to get you to not switch away from their product. Then again, i wouldn’t say it’s a stretch either…

    Out of store rate?

    I know that some (all?) of the big 3 have out of store pay rates for their drivers. I know that papa johns does it here and they pay minimum wage for in store and a lower rate while out of store on delivery. My point of sales system supports this, so it’s had me thinking for quite a while…...

    Building customer traffic

    Nice post! Very true, especially for guys with actual dining rooms. I’ve seen people build an empire because of their charisma. Sadly, I wasn’t born with it… I try though.

    Refusing Service to Customers

    There is a line. I don’t give a shit who you are, if you cross it, you will hear what I have to say. Is it a smart “business” move? No, but my dignity is worth more than the cash in my bank account. Does this old school mentality of “take your ass elsewhere” fit our modern society? I honestly...

    swipe at door question

    What devices are you guys using? I’m really interested in trying this. How are they tendered in your point of sales system? That’s the part that throws me off… Accepting a credit card on another device when the point of sales system is expecting the card. How does that work? Can anyone share...

    swipe at door question

    I’d love to swipe at the door if I could set it up with my pos system. I can barley get everyone to balance at the end of the day as it is. If I had a third party I’d imagine total chaos. Am I wrong??

    Contractors working at night

    Companies come in all the time to do their job with nobody at the shops. Hell our pest control company has the keys/alarm codes. I remember staying every night to close the place down. Every single night just to essentially lock the door. Then I started to think about big companies - banks and...

    Driver ran over a motorized bicycle

    Man that bike is neglected…look at that rusty chain, those filthy wheels. Granted that has nothing to do with the fact that the guy ran it over, but still a bummer because the person is acting like it’s their prized possession or something I was picturing this...

    Buffet waitress tips

    Who’s getting upset? Is it the kitchen? Our kitchen doesn’t receive tips because they aren’t tipped employees (check labor laws about this and also about tip sharing). Our kitchen crew never expects to receive tips therefore never have the idea that they are getting short shafted. They get a...

    Cheese Hog

    What’s the cost on those? I like the idea of shredding 25-50 lbs a minute… that’s way faster than my vcm!

    Cheese Hog

    Any salesman is going to tell you what you want to hear to sell their product… While I don’t know much about a cheese hog, I do know that we’ve used a pelican head to shred endless cases of cheese for almost 50 years. We still have our original Hobart mixer. I’m no physics wizard, but I would...

    Grande Cheese

    I’m having problems all the sudden with companies trying to push old products on us. I think every damn distributer near me over purchased and is just pushing their losses off on people who aren’t paying enough attention. I had beef come in last week (from the top distributer) that was marked...

    how do you deal with salesman?

    I was at an ice cream shop yesterday and some salesman came in… the salesman said “I’m back again, did you think about it any?”, the owner says, “I don’t think we are interested right now”, the salesman says, “I’ll be back then, how about next week?”, the owner tells him, “how about I call you...
