Sunday Isn't a Day of Rest in the Restaurant Business

Sundays aren't typically considered days of rest in the restaurant business, as there's always money to be made. However, for the owners of Morgan's restaurant, Sunday was set aside as Helen's day off. To test her new team and menu, they decided to open for lunch on this day, despite the fact that Sundays are usually reserved for relaxation.

To lead the restaurant today, sensitive assistant manager Laura was in charge. Unfortunately, she wasn't exactly well-prepared for the task at hand. According to Gordon Ramsay, who is speaking directly to Laura, "Laura was supposed to be you today was a big chance to impress me." However, it seems that Laura didn't quite live up to expectations.

The reason for this lack of preparedness becomes clear as Gordon continues to speak. "She said she's got a business degree," he says, "but I don't see any evidence of that right now." It appears that Laura's supposed qualifications haven't translated into actual skills when it comes to running the restaurant.

As the lunch service begins, things only get more chaotic. Sandy, the host, hasn't shown up, and Gordon is having trouble finding the table plan for the day. "This place needs a person to come in and all they open up and inspire everyone," he laments, but it seems that Laura has failed to take on this role.

At 12:45, Laura finally arrives, but she doesn't seem particularly apologetic about her tardiness or lack of preparedness. She can't even find her own table plan, which adds to the sense of chaos in the restaurant. Gordon's frustration with Laura becomes clear as he tries to rally her to take charge.

"You'll run the show if you don't show me some form of business study," he tells her, suggesting that she needs to get up to speed on basic business skills if she wants to be a effective manager. However, it seems that Laura is struggling to even find the reservation book, which had gone missing two hours earlier.

Gordon's patience wears thin as he tries to work with Laura, but it becomes clear that she's not taking her responsibilities seriously. He's forced to take charge himself, leading the show and trying to get things back under control.

Despite his efforts, things only seem to get worse. The customers are starting to arrive, and the restaurant is in disarray. Gordon can't help but shake his head at the chaos around him, wondering how something like this could have happened.

As he tries to rally Laura, Gordon can't help but express his frustration with her lack of preparation and leadership skills. "Hello, you can shake your head and run off again," he says, his voice laced with exasperation. It's clear that he's at his wit's end and desperate for a real manager who can take charge.

In the end, Gordon turns to Helen, the restaurant owner, for support. He tells her that he's desperate for a real manager who can get things back on track. Despite his frustration with Laura, it seems that Gordon still has faith in Helen and is counting on her to step in and provide some much-needed leadership.

As the lunch service continues, it becomes clear that Sundays aren't always a day of rest in the restaurant business. There's always work to be done, and sometimes, even the best-laid plans can go awry.
