Out of curiosity, for the ones that work in the 5-20 hour a week range. Do you have another job, source of income, hobby, etc. ? I have four stores with my sister. I probably work 50 a week and 70% is in my problem store. She works mainly in one store. And the other 2 have solid management. I...

I still struggle with this myself. Fighting between being the owner or the operator. I am too much of a control freak to give too much power to somebody else. I realize that can sometimes be a flawed way to think. But my working 6 days a week has taken one of my stores and doubled the sales. I...

I personally still do it the old fashioned way too. I can do the schedule in about 20 minutes with about 20 employees. Our POS has scheduling but it is to awkward. Main issue is a lot of the shifts are open ended and don’t have a scheduled leaving time. One of my employees gives me his schedule...

webstaurant has these, they don’t have the handle, which I am sure is part of why you like them. HS1045 Polypropylene Jalapeno 7" Combo Server http://www.webstaurantstore.com/hs1045- … 045BK.html

I thought it was on moderately good terms, but I have found out it is not. He didn’t even have another job lined up before he pulled this. He thought I was just going to agree to what he wanted. I agree that I am going to just have to end it now. Just frustrating to get the unexpected wake up...

So, I have a manager that has been around for about 5 years. When my last manager left about 2 years ago I moved him up. Making decent money I thought, even gave him insurance for him and his kid. New tires for his car, send me the bill. Need help with a bill, let me know. He asks me for a raise...

Re: New Pizza Place In Saginaw, MI. Business Trends, Adverti If you are 3 months in and making money, you are ahead of the game. What kind of weekly/daily sales, population, competition? You obviously have a good product, so it is just a matter of getting them in the door to try it, e.g...

My other two Larosa tables are probably over 10 years old. But this one being the newest at 7 has had the most problems. My biggest issue is lack of “Qualified” HVAC/Refrigeration companies. Last time I was out of town it stopped cooling. They replaced a pressure switch and charged me almost...

I have LaRosa Tables in my stores, The newest one is only about 7-8 years old. I just put 900 in it and I have to add refrigerant at least once a month. Quote to fix the leak and compressor that is on its way out is in the 3500 range. I really think I want to cut my losses. Don’t have the 6k...

I always overlook those when troubleshooting with someone. But i do have a box of them. They are often neglected and caked with dust and they certainly will cause problems.

Could be a bunch of things. Probably two separate issues but could be a wiring issue. How old is the oven? Do the issues happen at the same time or different times? Off hand with out seeing it, conveyor could be the pickup or it could be the speed control (do you get an error number?, Is it a...

POS DIscussions always seem to get off topic quickly. Nature of the Beast I guess. I still maintain that I would avoid Granbury Restaurant Systems like the plague. I liked the Firefly System itself, but… They left me and dozens of other businesses to deal with a breach and tech support issues...

Have a menu to look at?

Congratulations, good luck, and buckle up! 🙂

Pizzashopguy, I hate to get into a thread that has been hijacked, but… I would be careful with both you mentioned. We dumped firefly because of PCI issues and unresponsive tech support. It’s a good system with poor support. And my honest opinion wether it be for online ordering or a POS, you are...

We used to do 10% off which was very popular. I have tried to get away from that and instead do a set price for a 2 or three topping pizza or free order of breadsticks with 10.00 purchase. If you can afford to do the 10% off, it has always done well for me. Margins being what they are at my...

Well, nothing has improved. I have issue with some that you mentioned. If these companies would spend more on development and tech support than sales guys, things might be different. If I knew then what I know now… If I put in a new pos today I would probably use point of success. What...

First clue is that it was an email. A legitimate legal claim is not going to be emailed. Certified or Hand delivered in my experience. They were just trying to intimidate you. That being said, I would follow the advice here and reword.

We use Cintas, but Uni1st is another one. they have all gotten ridiculous over the last year. I keep toying with dropping it.

I imagine at some point it will trickle down to all employers having to provide coverage. I have talked to accountants and business owners about the new policies and nobody understands them, not even the people writing them.😉 As far as Papa John, he would do well to keep his mouth shut. One...
