This will get fine tuned as time goes on. One thing missing is how the phones here should be answered... If there is a standard verbiage you can give me, I will fill it in. 2) I spoke to my plate rep today, Karen Harris. We will need to purchase plates soon, as you know... I can get catalogues for you to look at as well as set up an appointment to go look at the showroom if like. Going through Karen will give us a larger selection, better price and a much higher quality(stronger and lighter) than Crate And Barrel or other places like that. 3) I will need to order uniforms. just like to get your approval on them before making the purchase because this is something i will be wearing everyday in the house and serving the guests in. Attached are pictures of the coats, pants, and aprons. I've always worn the blue(french laundry style) aprons because white is so difficult to keep white, but they do come in white if you prefer. the jackets are mostly short sleeve because we are approaching summer. 4) Rich is working on accounts for Costco and butcher today 5) We placed orders for some gear for the kitchens today. Pasta machine to make fresh pastas, dehydrator for dried fruits and house made jerkys, etc... 6) I Planned on taking off this weekend and back to work on Monday. I feel like I still have a good amount of things to get done here in NY for JEs arrival on Saturday so I would like to spend next week training and cooking. A
