The war of openers vs. closers will continue for millenia.

Talk to them about it? Or stop stocking at night yourself? Pictures look similar too

Maybe is due to the orientation but I don’t think its that big of a deal.
I thought they would be leaving you completely empty but it seems its only a couple of containers.

Definitely doesn’t look bad bad

Maybe they rather not mix old With new lol I’d rather have a low pan with old Prep, instead of a full pan with new prep stacked with old prep on top. Especially with the amount of 1/9 pans you have lol

That’s why my line cooks work both shifts. I’m constantly trying to cross train and break the monotony with my team. No bitching amongst each other about who works harder, but we still get the occasional outlying incident. They will conform, be let go, or the team will weed them out. My biggest issue is cleaning during downtime and my biggest pet peeve is earbuds. I hate earbuds during the rush, we need to communicate, before/after we open/close I’m fine as we have downtime. They’re in your ear and dirty. I’ve seen them on food contact surfaces too many times to count. Plus most people don’t wash their hands after handling them. My guys wear multiple sets of gloves so we’re not constantly changing them but sometimes they’re not wearing gloves, nor do they shed that pair.

At least it’s clean.

When people are this slack, it’s almost a favor to do the shit yourself and know it’s done correctly and no surprises.

I’ll be honest…I was expecting more.

Totally understand this. The night crew never stocks at my place…. unless one of them is working the next morning

So how are you filling those pans at the end of your shift? Are you putting new prep in fresh 9ths and putting the leftover old prep on top? or are you topping off old prep with new prep? Honestly both are incorrect. IMHO the correct way is to have a new prep backup 9th underneath ready to swap out when the old one is completely spent. Eliminates risk and waste simultaneously, only takes 2 seconds to swap out a pan. Of course every kitchen has its quirks and issues with storage, so I get that isnt always on option.

For some context they have 6 people working on the line while I work with one other person. Last week they kicked me out an hour early so I didn’t have time to restock all the way;the next day I got called out during line up for not restocking and that my coworkers had to spend an hour doing it. This has been an ongoing issue and the irony that they can do it but the moment I do it I get reprimanded.

I’d be happy with just how clean it is 😅

I literally can’t tell the difference between the two.

Hmmm. I get it. Funny I saw a lot of comments of people saying it’s “not that bad” Lol gtfo with that If I leave a clean and proper station, it’s not unreasonable to expect the same.

Start leaving them less. Dont fill pan all the way up. Make them have to prep too

“Oh right, I closed last night. Still bullshit!”

You’re second/last shift, from two shifts? In Germany, you would have to empty everything anyway after your shift, to ensure freshness. Are you really allowed to leave those pots filled up like that for the next shift the next day?

Honestly mate unless you own a share or have hopes of taking over the show nobody will thank you for this shit and they’ll just lean on you even more.

Listen, I close. We close at a decent time so I’m not to tired and I got time… you take care of me, I’ll take care of you. You don’t stock half my stuff all the tongs, spoons, ladels, spatulers, chingaderas are getting put away and you won’t open with shit. However, you do your best so when I take over and hit the order screen running. Miraculously I’ll leave you in a great spot so you can have an easy morning.
VincentVanG
Why bother.

where i used to work, you would open and close usually (12 to close ish), so everyone knew both sides. never really had issues between closing and opening.
NancyDrewsfatpuss
This was always crazy to me. I have a soft obsession with stocking/setting up for the next day, so I was always chosen for closer because I loved it and did a fantastic job. I did it so well that people would have to earn the privilege of opening after I’ve closed lol there’s something about making it to where all you have to do is start grabbing shit that makes my heart warm. I do this at home too, I’ll lay my clothes out in a stack in the order of which I put them on, and all of my stuff for work is laid out in order and in a way that makes it easy to collect. When I did it for a friend after a sleepover, she would always joke about marrying me lol

Oh but surely you missed a spot on the floor or there’s a smudge on the outside of the cooler! So the kitchen will be unusable in the morning. S/
