    Labor

    Manager $32k, works 45-47hrs week. We charge $16 for an 18" Cheese Pie and $2 per topping… Thanks for the great feedback. Rent is actually 4.1%of gross. I believe training efficiency / sense of urgency is my biggest opportunity. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Building POS system using Point of Success

    Hello, We have been using Point-of-Success for 2 years. Great system, some limitations but overall does what you need. My advice: Go all-in-1 terminals, less wires and the newer models have no fan. Computer fans and flour are not. A good comination Use your kitchen screens and forego printers...

    Hello, What is the proper/best procedure for adding basil on a Margherita baked on @ 550 on a stone? Prior to launching or immediately out of oven?
