M/T/W Bakery/Rob R and Gayle M


Hi everyone.
Thanks to all who gave me feedback on the types of things you would like to see in the Unitime book I am creating.

Moving on....On Monday we got to do something fun while at the bakery, all three of us had a chance to decorate our own cookie using an array of cake decorations. The cookies were a welcomed break from a hard days work  because for most of that morning the girls and I had been taking rotating shifts cutting up cookie dough for the dairy bar and we all know how picky the dairy bar gets about the size of their cookie dough pieces lol. The coolers were so cold I could not bare it, but the rotation made it survivable, of course you know I am exaggerating a bit. It was funny though because Gretchen thought it felt great in there and even wanted to continue cutting up dough (crazy girl that Gretchen). After the girls and I decorated the cookies, we played with a little fondant and made various figures. My fondant person was Elmo, picture above. That was basically my day at the bakery.
The following day we had to meet with Rod R. our celebrity chef here on campus and plan our teamed menu. I have to say, you guys are in for a treat. Now I won’t give away the details so you will just have to wait and see. Anyway, while working with Rod we made great headway in the project on FoodPro, it turns out many of our menu options are already in FoodPro so we didn’t have much to impute. After our session with Rob R was over it was time to spend a few hours with Gayle M learning how to use FoodPro. She went over the basic components of the system with us among other things. We each had a chance to do a different aspect of her job. Our time with Gayle was broken down into two sessions and today we leaned how to shut down FoodPro, run a few reports, and organize them into the various mail boxes. I find it amazing the degree of paper we go through each week just running those reports for all the different units but we have to do what we have to do. After a lot of jokes, an interesting story, and new computer skills the girls and I were on our way. The next few days I will be doing assistant manager again at the big P,which should be fun. Bye till next time

  2. A menu! Permissions! But how will it suit?
    Is it waffles, or chicken, or brie-en-croute?
    Decorated for picnic or full blown nanny-a-hoot?
    Team Brit-tchen is planning for confratute!
