AngusSandwich's Shop Eleven Application
IGN: AngusSandwich
Previous Applications:
None
Warnings/Kicks/Bans:
Flooding IC chat, Drama in OOC, Flooding OOC, Metabaiting, Metagame, Metagame, and AvoidRP.
Flooding IC chat: I was explaining a long story to someone and didn't realize how long the paragraph was.
Drama in OOC: Another player was making sexist remarks about blonde women, so I tried to explain how rude it was of him to say those things. I wasn't trying to be rude, but I reckon it came across that way. I was kicked for this reason.
Flooding OOC: I was warned for this because of the previous explanation.
Metabaiting: I had no clue what meta baiting was and I had read the rules but had just come back from a very long break.
Metagame: I had meant to say this over the phone, but accidentally clicked my arrow button on my keyboard.
Metagame: I was new to the server, like had literally just spawned in and hadn't read the rules.
AvoidRP: I was being attacked, but then had gotten sick in real life and had no time to explain in /looc as to why I had to leave so suddenly.
Shop Application Advertisement: I had linked a previous application for my friend to proof-read earlier today because I wanted a second pair of eyes and I had not realized that it would be considered advertisement. This is the first warning I've had in quite a while and while I do know that this is a poor example of a shop applicant, if I am given this chance it would be incredibly amazing. I promise it will not happen again.
I know that you did not ask for explanations to our warns/kicks, but I feel as though a lot of these could have been easily resolved and I do not want you to get the wrong impression of me.
Why do you want to own a shop?
I would love to own a shop for many reasons. When I first joined the server half a year ago, it was so much fun being seventeen when I got there because it was the age everyone else was. But now, it's boring and nothing is ever happening. I would join college, but seeing as I don't and can't have Discord, it would be extremely hard to balance it. I feel as though if I open a shop, playing on the server might be much more fun for me, although I am extremely active on the server.
I also want to open myself up to the community and get to know people more. I only know a few people on the server and only talk to them. If I open a shop, people would possibly come and I could meet them and become closer to them. There are so many different people on the server and I feel like I only know a very tiny fraction of them.
I want to have a place for people to connect and communicate other than around the 11-7 on the server. I notice that is where most people spend their time whenever they're online, and it isn't ideal because people can get bored just hanging around the gas station. Also, if you are in a large group and a cop is conveniently online, you can get in trouble for loitering.
I would love to own a shop in real life as well, but at the moment, it's not possible. I've always been told I would be great at owning a shop because of how independent I am, which is true. I am very independent for my age and mature as well. Opening a store would also teach me responsibility. I am already very responsible and owning a shop will help me to learn important assets. I know that opening a shop on School RP would give me a chance to know what it's like to own a shop and do supply, inventory, balancing out the needs and wants, and help me get to know different things about business. I know that it wouldn't be exactly the same, but it would be amazing just to see how it all works.
What do you plan to do with the shop?
I wouldn't plan on changing much because the restaurant is already beautiful, although there are some things that I would change.
Before I start, I do realize that the application rules say, "If the shop says, 'Cafe' on the roster, you are to apply for a cafe and not a disco strip club extravaganza", and Shop Eleven does say restaurant and I am making it out to be a restaurant-bar, but there are already a lot of restaurants on the server and I would like to make my shop as unique as possible.I would like to make the outside look a bit more comforting. I would like to make the first floor a burger and milkshake joint. Then, I would make the second floor a bar for ages eighteen and up. I know that I would change the name to Oblivion because I love the name and it stands out. I also may want to renovate inside and add one or two party rooms or private rooms. I know that it doesn't sound like much right now, but I promise that it will be amazing if I ever get the chance to own it.
How do you plan to make your shop unique?
Oblivion would be unique because it would be a bar and burger joint altogether. It would also be a place where people of all ages can get together and meet each other. It will be a place where people can come and enjoy themselves without the judgment of other people.
In the bar, there would be different mixtures of foods and drinks from all over the world to make it diverse. I would also try and do certain nights where certain foods and drinks are discounted or free. I would also have two nights a week (oocly) in the burger joint where there would also be diverse food, this way underage people who would like to have foods other than American food will be able to.
Oblivion would also hold parties, fundraisers, and events if people wish to book the building. We would also offer delivery and catering.
Oblivion would also offer many contests where people can win money, free prizes, and more. There would also be events such as mixers and community gatherings, where there would be discounts. I would make my shop a place where anyone can hang out without having to pay, whereas other clubs and bars charge a door fee of high prices.
Oblivion would also be open at least once a day and once a night unless something comes up and I cannot open which would only be maybe once a week (oocly) because of my health issues. I know that there are places on the server with such qualities, but I know that I can make Oblivion much more.
How many employees do you plan to have?
I would plan to have a co-owner, someone trust worthy and who can open for me whenever I am not available. I would also like to have seven bartenders, two for each opening and one more in case someone cannot be at work or does not show up. I would also consider having two managers for the restaurant and two managers for the bar. I would have four people in security, but only when the bar is open, which would be often and for the same reason, in case employees cannot make it to work. Six waiters or waitresses, possibly more. There would also be two event hosts or hostess. Also, obviously delivery would be an important asset. Furthermore, there would be three chefs. I would also have five hosts or hostess so that people can have shifts. Also, I would work the bar and restaurant whether the building is busy or not and whenever I am available. So, in total, my shop would have around twenty employees total.
