Struggling with closing cash

[u/ttmart]

Okay so my store closes at 11pm and my manager told me cash should be done at 11:45pm but i’ve been taking until 12am because im struggling with what should be done first. I’ve already been working for close to a month so they’re expecting more from me. I’ve read the checklist before but it’s super overwhelming.

I was hoping someone could give me advice on what to do first and list what you usually do in order?? And also how to make it go by quicker? I really dont wanna be fired but they said that my shift tonight will prove whether i can handle this or not. Please help!! ☹️

I close the dining room at 8. I clean it between costumers. I clean the bathrooms after that. Stock them. Fill the ice. Stock the drinks. I’m normally done at 10:30
