Don’t Forget

• Workers are allowed up to $5 in free product (including drinks) per shift.  BE SURE to note the items on the daily inventory sheet under the staff food column.  If you don’t use all the $5, you cannot take the rest home at the end of your shift.


• Occasionally, an item may be damaged “out of box.”  When that happens, we can’t sell the item so staff is allowed to eat it but it must be noted on the daily inventory sheet under the Damaged Items column.


• Do NOT give any food or drinks to lifeguards or other staff – they must pay for their orders.  LIFEGUARDS  GET WATER FOR 50 CENTS.


• Do NOT give “change” to customers without a purchase.


• No visitors are allowed inside the Snack Shack.


• Keep the Snack Shack door locked.


• Radios are OK for use but should not be so loud that you can’t communicate with customers easily – any complaints and they will not be allowed at all.


• Do not use headphones when customers are present.


• Do not use cell phones when customers are present.


• If the pool is closing due to bad weather, contact the Snack Shack Manager immediately.
