New Payroll, New Events, and New Specials

As you can see from the title of this week's posting, there area few updates that need to be made and some great new things going on.
Payroll:
First of all, you are required to sign your payroll sheet every week. Sign it right away, sign it on Wednesday, but you have to sign it before it gets picked up from all outer locations on Wednesday afternoon. This is important and will insure you get paid correctly and on time.
BRAVO:
As some of the returning employees may know, we are continuing with the BRAVO program again this year. Basically, this is a program to recognize all the great employees we have that go above and beyond the call of duty. We're not talking taking out the trash when asked, but big things like tackling a large cleaning project or picking up lots of emergency shifts. We want to say thank you! Brew Management and Retail will be giving tickets to distribute to any Brew employee we catch being amazing. Your ticket will then be filled out with your name and awesome deed and entered into a drawing for either an Annex or Lunda gift certificate. That's it! Just keep being great Brew employees.
Coffee:
As you might notice, we are now going to be offering all 4 coffees at The Bridge and Cudahy in addition to the Bayou. Our customers asked for it and we're going to deliver. This also means that you all need to keep an eye on your needs lists so we can offer all coffees every day.
Helping the Cause:
The Brew is going to continue striving for new and better ways to help the environment and community. Our efforts with collecting milk caps for SEDA (School of Early Development and Achievement) is going really well. Every location is equipped with a milk crate and garbage bag to collect all Kemps milk caps.
Secondly, we are selling baggies of 2 cookies for 1.25 in support of Breast Cancer Awareness. They are chocolate cookies with PINK chips. Ring them up under "Sugar Cookie" until the register set up is complete (early October).
Specials:
Keep and eye out for next week's blog. Our new Brew Latte Special, drink special, and bakery special will be updated for you including recipes!
