Idk, I just did the math, at .86% labor and 61k for the day, he spent 524$ on labor. Sounds like huge cap to me. At florida minimum wage thats 40 labor hours. That's 5 employees for an 8 hour shift, or 9 for a 4.5 hour shift, at minimum wage. Doing 60k in a shift. Idk thats big if true, but im not sure thats actually doable unless it was mostly alcohol sales and there were some high rollers dropping grands. Lowest labor I've seen in fine dining was when 4 dolphin linebackers came in and spent 45k for a table of 8, but it was like 42k of alcohols and like 3 grand worth of steaks and shit. But even then we had like 25 people on staff cause its a fancy place and people expect super quick service, so labor was at 7% or so for the day. And that was still fucking stupid low.
