We need to figure out a better system for these homecoming groups. Every time we have one, the numbers are never correct, and the parent who is trying to coordinate all the different reservations and parties usually has no clue how many people they actually have. It's not fair to them for their tables to not be ready and for me to be standing there like a deer in headlights trying to figure out where were going to make 25 more people fit. The original reservations were Welsh-12p, Rhodes- 8p, Godwin- 14, Hargrove- 10p and Gladd 18. All the tables were pushed together and ready to go. Mrs. Welsh comes in and the hostess showed her to Welsh 12 top. She now says that they have 22 people. GREAT. Then she goes on to say that the Rhodes party should be for 18 people. GREAT. We finally figure out that the Hargrove party of 10 is how Mrs. Welsh was getting 22 people. We got all the changes made as quickly as we could, but now were all scrambling back and forth trying to figure out what is what and how many we need where. All while still having regular service go on and we were pretty busy for a Saturday. I just think everyone would be better off having a buffet set up for them away from the regular service of the restaurant. All of those hoco parties together accounted for about 68 of our covers tonight. We did the best we could with the hand we were dealt.
