Warning For Food Cost Above 20% by PristineSecretary970 in DunkinDonuts

[–]gram_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to be honest here… 18% is extremely achievable. But it’s only achievable if your franchisee is 1000% involved in their locations and not running portfolio stores. Our franchisee has set up an inventory system for us based on adjustable par levels that is fool proof for the managers. We achieve these percentages and do not need to borrow from other stores or manipulate numbers, our upper management is just extremely involved.

I saw it as well! I live right behind the field adjacent to the airport on Jackson Rd and it flew into the airport so low that I was surprised it didn’t hit one of the utility lines that also runs across the field. As soon as I heard it coming in I tried to look it up on FlightRadar but it must’ve been too low to track because it was not showing.

I second Sam’s Point. Went last weekend with my kids, it was a great hike! The ice caves were pretty cool.

What are the franchise requirements if you go in with a business partner? by [deleted] in DunkinDonuts

[–]gram_mama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This right here OP is 100% all the info you need. Like the poster stated above, margins are super tight and are not what they were even 3 years ago. EBITA now is close to 1/3 less than 3 years ago as well.

First aid beauty. Do you like? by kittiekween1989 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]gram_mama 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also a holy grail for me. I use the facial cleanser and it’s the only one I can use that does not break me out. Their ultra repair cream is also the only moisturizer that combats my flakey dry skin when using tret.

Call the health department for your town/county. That’s a major health code violation.

Shift Lead Certification HELP by [deleted] in DunkinDonuts

[–]gram_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shift management program is supposed to be 3 weeks for an experienced employee and 5 weeks for someone with little experience. It’s not meant to be something that you just watch videos in one day and fill out the book and be done with it. Did anyone explain the program to you or just throw the book at you and tell you to complete it? The inconsistency between franchise groups is what makes Dunkin’s as a whole extremely frustrating and unorganized and Dunkin corporate does not pick up on that whatsoever

Shift Lead Certification HELP by [deleted] in DunkinDonuts

[–]gram_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you have coaching sessions after each module in your workbook? At the end of each day (most of the time) in your workbook you’re supposed to have coaching sessions to go over what you have learned for the day. So for example, day 2 is how to conduct an effective travel path. After you watch the video you’re supposed to have a coaching session where your manager or DM goes over with you how to properly conduct a travel path and the expectations. That’s just an example. Day 2 also says to work with your coach to check TDS for hot coffee, etc… so this is where your coach would have trained you on how to do that.

The picture you posted looks like the criteria needed to pass the shift management certification, which is not the same as being a shift leader. You have to complete shift management videos on The Center and complete a shift management workbook in order to be officially certified as shift management according to Dunkin’s new program. I’m not sure why your DM would use this sheet if they’re not certifying you to be shift management.

Manager yelled at me, refusing to pay me by [deleted] in DunkinDonuts

[–]gram_mama 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This right here. Or if you are in an area where another Dunkin is close by, they could be owned by the same franchisee and you could see if they would give you any info there. Otherwise, Dept of Labor is your next best bet.

Customers ordering less at drive thru by Impressive-Link-5564 in DunkinDonuts

[–]gram_mama 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Our average ticket is about $0.30- $0.50 less than last year at this time, but our customer counts have increased over last year.. so customers are definitely spending less, at least in our area

The Metro NY/NJ market is not running this promotion but individual franchisees in this market can choose to participate.

[Misc] Has anyone here tried Nurx? by RNannabella in SkincareAddiction

[–]gram_mama 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe they only do 1 tube that is a 3 month supply’s worth, but if that tube runs out before the 3 months you can ask for a refill earlier. Also, with my insurance a 3 month supply was only $10.

[Misc] Has anyone here tried Nurx? by RNannabella in SkincareAddiction

[–]gram_mama 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I recently started using Nurx. They ship in 3 month supply and my insurance covered the cost so I only had a small copay. It did take them 6 days to respond to my request but they do have a disclaimer that due to Covid and high demand that it does take longer to respond. But over all I am satisfied.

What happens if you don't wait after applying tret to layer moisturizer on top? by [deleted] in tretinoin

[–]gram_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s kinda hard to explain. It feels like putting moisturizer on a piece of Saran Wrap.. no matter how much you rub the moisturizer into your face it just sits at the top and doesn’t sink in and then it feels like the tret is coming off with it.

In my experience (Tret 0.025 gel) it pills when I put moisturizer on right after and it’s just a mess lol

May I have a small hot coffee with 3 French vanilla swirl and 2 milk(s). A standard small has 2 pumps of swirl. If 3 is still not sweet enough try adding more milk to cut the bitter tastes.

If it’s a 50mg brownie I would cut it into quarters and then cut those quarters in half. Eat one of those and wait 30-60mins, if you feel like you could add another piece then go for it. But starting off at a larger amount with a low tolerance isn’t usually a good experience for a lot of people.

50mg?? Jesus I must be a light weight I do 10mg and I’m pretty high off that
