maintaining that 'A'.

so i was able to maintain that 'A' in the Lodi store; however, the company (my former boss) had thought that i could do more. 

my boss had moved me to a store more closer to home.  i was moved to a much older restaurant, much much older.  this restaurant was bigger, somewhat larger sales volume, older, more dirty, it was much of a challenge for me to keep it maintained.  i had much of a challenge to keep and earn my 'A'. 

the year being of march, 2007.  The first place i had started to get this store in order was the cleanliness and putting good ways into practice.  the previous manager must of been tired or just gave up on his job because when i came to that store, its like the employees didn't know any of company standards or expectations.  it is not hard to wash the dishes and put them away after they are dry in a clean area.  when i got to this store, it had gotten a red audit.  now mine you a red audit means closure of the store and termination of the general manager.  a red audit indicates that all food safety litterally went out the door and food is being served any old way.  a red audit indicates that expired coffee is being served, refridgeration temperatures are not cold enough, bathrooms are not clean enough, it can even mean that employees are  not washing their hands properly.  i had to change this store around within 24hours because the quality assurance auditor was coming again to revisit the store.  now, i knew what i had to look for, i started in the kitchen throwing away what was broken, what was out of date, and so on.  the employees thought i was someone crazy.  but, hey, being crazy gets some authority too.  I did what i had to do.  and after that within that day, i had received a gold audit. 

having receiving a gold audit, i knew my boss was going to keep me there, in that restaurant.  after so many years and several different managers attempting to achieve what i had achieved in one day, i knew i wasnt going anywhere else for a while.  ive now been a manager for 2 years and had accomplished a lot.  i really made a name for myself at carls jr.
