The other one is managing the shop activities and organizing shifts for employees. They work 24/7 and have three shifts. They employ well-experienced employees in each shift. The shop has three chefs for making the dough and sauce, three well-trained employees for preparing and putting the ingredients, and three well-trained employees for cooking the pastry and controlling the oven heat.

The next employee then starts to prepare the dough based on the order (the shop has two bases of dough: white flour dough and brown wholemeal flour dough) (4 minutes). The next employee is responsible for filling the pastry with the ingredients based on each customer’s order (2 minutes).
