For the manager meeting last night, we went over a lot of good points on how to improve our managing techniques. I feel as though I haven't been bringing up issues with the crew members that have been bothering me, so I will definitely work towards improving that this week and in the future. Also, this week I'm starting inventory and once it's complete it will help us out a lot and make everything a million times easier. yayy!
What is this blog?
The RutgersZone is a revolutionary new space located in the Livingston Student Center on the Livingston Campus of Rutgers University. The space includes games like Skee-Ball and Pool, an array of HD Satellite televisions and a full-service ice cream/soda shop.
In addition to creating a unique experience on campus for Rutgers students, the RutgersZone also aims to develop life and leadership skills of the staff members working in the space.
This blog, the RutgersZone Experiment, is a chronicle of this ground-breaking experience being shared by seven undergraduate student managers and one professional staff general manager. These students are being tasked with working as a team to create an unmatched on-campus experience for our guests, learning to become effective managers and constantly "pushing the envelope" for what is expected on a college campus. As a part of their employment experience, each student manager is asked to blog at least once per week about the processes associated with opening this space or developing as a manger.

Woof Status
Last week started off pretty rough. I came into my shift Monday, after being a COMPLETE grouch at the Sunday meeting, with yet another bad attitude. Clearly it did not go unnoticed which prompted Matt and I to have a talk. When I went home that night, I realized bringing my emotional baggage into work was just going to spread a negative feeling to both staff and customers, if it had not already. For my next shift, I made sure I checked my attitude at the door and came in with high spirits. Work is much more enjoyable for me and the crew when we are working efficiently and having a good time.
