Sales vs. employee cost
Demo data: restaurant opens at 11:00 AM; sales peak at lunch and dinner, then taper through 10:00 PM. Payroll follows traffic with typical labor scaling.
For each clock hour, sales are illustrative order totals and payroll is illustrative labor dollars from time-on-clock × wage (full product uses your live timecards).
