In one of my past blogs on industry terms I mentioned team work in not such a great way, I must have written it after a rough night at work.  We have a ll heard it "full hands in, full hands out" the message reverberates through out the business.  When you walk into a restaurant and it looks disorganized, staff running around crazy and orders coming out late or messed up, many times it is due to a lack of  team work.  It is easy to get caught in the trap of not helping out, we all know who works as a team member and who is out only for themselves.  Those that are there for number one only don't get much help from their peers, but once that happens it is easy to stop helping everyone.  That needs to stop, and we need to do better, Lead by example, and with time those that only help themselves will catch on or get weeded out.  Also, one of the best phrases to get someone moving, is "Could you Please help me" none of us use that one enough.  With a little help from everyone, your restaurant, my restaurant, can look organized and professional, and most of all, guests will keep coming back.
