(back of house, to current employees) Near the start of the event, a man has grabbed the shift schedule from its place on the wall and is adjusting things with light pencil marks, frowning as he glances up from time to time at the group settled around the common spaces. He mumbles to himself as he edits and adjusts numbers, murmuring about the truckloads that are getting dumped in. Every now and again, he looks up with a small huff, his eyebrows softening in an apology for the ask he's about to make.
"Hey, I know you're not supposed to clock in until later, but is there any way I could talk you into putting in a few extra hours today? It's going to get worse before it gets better, and we're going to need some extra hands if we want everyone to have a minute to sit down today. It's probably going to be bad even with all the new hires."
It might just be the first time anyone has asked for consent since the newest staff arrived. This might be the right kind of leverage to get some other questions answered.
(back of house, to new hires) The newbies come in usual varieties. Some are frightened and confused. Many are angry and looking for answers no one can give them. When he's off-duty, Demitri lingers around the shift schedule and timeclock, greeting people who look particularly new.
"Hey, I don't think I've seen you around before. Did you just start?"
