Number 1 is those essential to staying on the job, vital to it being done in a satisfactory manner.

Number 2 is only somewhat less important, needs to be addressed if deficient and be improved upon. Failing to improve could lead to warning notices, no increases in salary, and ultimately dismissal.

Number 3 is areas that should be done well enough but would not lead to a more serious action if deficient.

Put another way, the Number one areas are the most important elements of the job and priority and attention should be focused on meeting these elements of the job. The number 2 items need to be accomplished to do a very good job. Number 3 items are less important and might be areas of improvement or done nicely, but won’t really influence a job review dramatically.

Expect what is said to the guests will be repeated to the owners the evening. It is often necessary to slow down the guests (or their children) driving ATV’s or other vehicles, and this needs to be done promptly, politely, and clearly. Do not be afraid to say NO if you hear a bad idea or plan. Always ride for the Brand.
