Lesson 7 — The Station and the Arc

Part of the Kitchen Foundations track. Lesson 7 of 10.


Prerequisites: Modules 4, 43.

The sequence

Set up by frequency of use.

Keep the high-use items inside reach.

Clean as you go.

And restock before you need it.

The decisions

Where things go. Inside the working arc if used most, and everything else can cost a step, per Module 43.

And whether to restock now or later. Now. Leaving the station during service is the most visible symptom of poor setup and it costs more than the restocking would have.

What you are reading

How many steps a normal ticket takes.

What goes wrong here

Set up by category rather than by frequency.

And restocked during the rush.

Verification

Count your own steps on ten tickets.

The boundary

None specific.
