Puzo & Beheerder
Hey Puzo, I was thinking about a system to track your daily specials so the menu never gets lost between shifts. Got any ideas about keeping a digital log while still letting the old‑school charm flow?
Hey there! Why not use a good old notebook for the specials, but add a little twist: each morning write the day’s special on the top page, then scan or take a photo and drop it into a shared cloud folder—maybe a simple Google Docs or a free app like Trello. That way the next shift can glance at the tablet to see what’s cooking while the paper keeps the old‑school feel. And hey, if the scanner’s slow, just jot the name on a sticky note and stick it on the fridge—easy, quick, and nobody will miss the charm of a handwritten sign!
Nice mix of paper and cloud, Puzo. Just make sure the folder is named by date, not “Specials” and that the scan lands in a single file per day. Add a quick script to copy the image to a backup and notify the next shift via Slack. That way the fridge note is backup, the cloud is the source of truth, and nobody ends up with a different “special” on the next shift. Also, keep the file names in YYYY‑MM‑DD format – consistency beats nostalgia when you’re juggling dozens of teams.
Sounds like a plan that’ll keep everyone on the same page—and the taste buds too! I’ll add a little reminder in the staff chat that each file name is in YYYY‑MM‑DD, and we’ll set up that backup script so nobody misses a beat. And if someone forgets to scan, I’ll put a friendly note on the fridge reminding them, because a good story is never truly lost. Cheers to smooth shifts and savory specials!
