Trainer: Brandon Kirkland

Trainee/s:
1) Alex Bernstein
2) Scott Vance

Follow: Day 1 Runner training

Please give a brief overview of the trainee/s performance during their follow, including strengths and weaknesses. List each in order if multiple trainees are present.

1) Alex Bernstein - Had previous food service experience and did very well through the day. Asked plenty of good questions and seemed to be eager to take suggestions. Had a little trouble crouching but, is tall so it's to be expected.
2) Scott Vance - No real food service experience but, did well considering. Seemed a little quiet or shy during the runner roleplay but, seemed to understand everything. 

If Day Three Follow, please post trainee/s Certification score and/or retake score.

What roles do you see the trainee/s attaining in their future with the Alamo Drafthouse family?
1) Alex Bernstein - probably server
2) Scott Vance - Not sure

Did you cover all topics on the Follow Card?
I did with Alex but, Scott was pulled away during training to help with a kitchen experiment. He missed out on practicing bathroom checks and doing prep. Jade has already been informed of these things.

Do you feel that the trainee/s was given enough guidance?
Yes but, some review for Scott may need to happen

What was something you learned from this train?
It's very difficult to post timely blogs when your desktop decides to die.

What feedback do you have to improve our training efforts?
I thought it might be a cool idea to have a trainer follow day every once in a while so the other trainers could get on the same page and know each others days/training styles. It might improve the overall training experience.
