Your Responsibilities
Do your part so everyone has a good experience.
Clean up after yourself.
Do your dishes as you work and put them away so others may use them.
Clean up your mess on the stove, in the ovens, and counter tops, etc.
After your shift wash the floor in and around your work station and in the kitchen.
If you make it dirty, please clean it.
Provide the disposables you need, like:
All food
Paper towels as you work
Counter cleaning rags
Pan liners, foil, plastic wrap
Bleach and sani bucket
You get the idea
You will also need to provide specialty equipment for your business
You may need more pots, fry pans, sheet pans, etc. than I have available, depending upon what you are cooking

There are some no-no’s
Please don’t use the supplies of others without their approval
The good news, there is a big Safeway in the shopping mall.
Easy peasy to get something you have forgotten.
Since we share equipment, please don’t take equipment out of the commissary without approval from me.
P.S. You have got to pay your rent on time.
I’m not that big that I can afford to float you a loan.
