Introduction

Scheduling

We do all of our scheduling through Hotschedules. You can download the free app "hotschedules team app" to always access it. We ask if you haven't already, login and set up your availability.

When scheduled you must work your shift, if you cannot, it is your responsibility to cover it. A manager must approve the shift covering. Communication is your best friend, communicate when you need something. If there is ever an emergency we will attempt to be accommodating, but please communicate and provide notice as soon as you can.

You do have access to an app called "Group me," where you have open communication with the team. (Trainer take a moment to add them to groupme and let the team know a little about the new teammate.)

To ask off for a shift, you must put the request in hotschedules. There must be at least 3 weeks notification. You are not guaranteed that day off, but we will work to the best of our ability to make sure that you get that day off.

Make sure you clock-in at the time you are supposed to and clock-out the time you are supposed, unless directed otherwise by a leader.

There are some actions that will lead to immediate suspension and/or termination. For those specific rules and policies refer to the policy handbook attached below.

Operational Excellence

It is important to develop trust with Guests through meeting quality requirements all day, every day. This is the focus of operational excellence and is the responsibility of each Team Member and Leader in the restaurant.

  1. Taste: Serve crave-able food (make sure we are following the recipes that you are taught. Do not deviate)

  2. Speed: Be surprisingly fast (we are a quick service restaurant, so we must be quick.)

    • Maintain eye contact

    • Share a smile

    • Speak Enthusiastically

    • Always say "My Pleasure"

  4. Cleanliness: Offer a refreshingly clean environment.

We have to make sure we complete all of these steps to achieve operational excellence. If there is one step missed then we have missed them all

Second Mile Service

Operational Excellence is what is required of us to operate as a good restaurant. 2MS is what will take us from good to great. The easy way to see this is, Operational Excellence is the 1st mile. The 2nd mile is everything extra. Meaning, we go above and beyond to make sure the guest is taken care of. For example; taking large orders our for guest, helping parents with children, checking in with the guest, helping elderly/disabled guest, etc. There are many things we can do to make sure the guest is taken care of, but we must filter them through three things:

  1. Genuine: Make sure when you are interacting with the guest you are presenting who you are as a person and not just going through the motions.

  2. Proactive: Do not wait for a guest to ask, look for ways to serve them. Anticipate their needs.

  3. Personal: Make a connection with the guest and make them feel like they are a part of team inspire.

Safety and Security

  • Designated Team Member should inspect exterior, looking for signs of forced entry or pried-open doors.

  • It is best to shine a flashlight on windows and doors to detect broken/missing glass.

If suspicious activity is observed, all Team Members should drive off and wait in safe location for further instruction. Designated Team Member should call 911 and then Operator to report suspicious activity or signs of break-in.

  • Never enter Restaurant until it has been inspected for signs of a break-in.

  • Give pre-arranged “all clear” signal to indicate it is safe for others to enter the Restaurant.

4 If point person fails to give “all clear” signal, those waiting outside should contact police.

5 Lock door once all members of opening team are inside, and keep it locked until the Restaurant opens for business.

Team Members who arrive after opening team should enter through most publicly visible door to the Restaurant. Allow only scheduled Team Members to enter building before opening hours.

Team Members should avoid entering Restaurant through back door or any entrance not having adequate lighting.

Leaving the Restaurant

Setting Alarm

  • Team Member in charge of closing should set alarm prior to leaving.

  • Verify that “set chirp” sounds when alarm is activated.

  • Confirm that red “armed” lamp is illuminated, indicating that system is fully armed.

  • Confirm delay time to exit the Restaurant once the system is armed, typically 45-60 seconds.

Leaving Parking Lot

  • All remaining Team Members should exit the Restaurant while point person watches and move quickly to vehicles.

  • All Team Members should avoid unnecessary delays, such as engaging in conversation when exiting the Restaurant.

Dealing with Robbery

    • Do not argue with robber; do exactly as robber asks, unless robber asks you to leave building with them

  • Avoid leaving building with robber.

    • If necessary, pretend to faint or try to run away if opportunity presents itself.

  • Assume all weapons are loaded

  • Minimize surprises that could startle robber.

    • Tell robber what you are going to do before you do it.

    • Do not make sudden movements

    • Explain possible surprises or noises, such as cooking equipment, a Team Member in back of Restaurant or a Team Member returning from a break.

  • Ask for clarification if you are not sure of robber's instructions.

  • Activate silent alarm.

    • Do this only if it can be done without risk to you, other Team Members or guests.

  • Avoid any actions that could threaten the safety of yourself or others.

    • Do not resist or try to be a hero.

    • Do not attempt to use a weapon.

    • Do not attempt to withhold money from robber.

    • Do not try to follow or chase robber from building

  • Preserve evidence and memorize details to assist police.

    • Attempt to observe robber's physical features (for example, build, coloring, tattoos, scars) and distinguishing characteristics (for example, clothing, footgear, jewelry, gun type) without looking directly at robber.

    • Look for traits that will later help you complete a "Suspect Description Form."

    • If you recognize robber, be careful not to indicate this.

After Robber leaves.

  • Remain wherever placed by robber

    • Wait for a reasonable period of time before exiting, to make sure it is safe.

    • If placed in walk-in refrigerator or freezer, activate alarm system as soon as possible, making sure robber does not see you do so.

  • Lock all external doors and Drive-Thru windows immediately after robber leaves.

    • It is important to lock doors immediately after robber leaves to avoid reentry, which could create a hostage situation.

  • Activate alarm system, if it has not already been activated.

  • Call 911 to notify police of robbery and preserve crime scene for police.

    • Request emergency medical assistance, if needed.

  • Try to see robber's vehicle from inside building and write down license plate number, if you can do so without putting yourself at risk.

  • Avoid discussing robbery until after police questioning is complete and do not speak with the media.

    • "I am unable to speak with you about that, but I will get you in touch with my Operator as soon as possible."
