I debrief dinner restaurant evals the following day at work. Even if it was my only shop that day.
I confirm debrief extensions beforehand. I stress that I take copious, thorough notes and that I prefer to debrief when I am not exhausted.
Never had anyone say no except on my last minute (bonused) shops, when the report needed to be in by midnight that night in order for them to meet their deadline.

In other words, speak with your scheduler about it. I negotiate with them to give me an extension, especially with shops done Mon-Thurs. I work a typical 8-5 job that requires my full attention and the schedulers I've worked with have been understanding to this fact.

I learned on here to ask for 24 hours. It works.

I like to draft my report when I get home from dinner, go to bed, and look at it with fresh eyes in the morning, then submit. I clear this with schedulers in advance. There is only one dining assignment I do that has to be reported by midnight, no exceptions.

Yet, we found it, read it, and replied
Frequently, the case.

Thank you all for your input. I never thought to ask for an extension. I guess when you tired from just submitting 3 long descriptive narratives, you do not pay particular attention to where you post your issue. Yeah, four hours of sleep can do that to you. Sorry if it offended anyone.
Off to do another 6 hrs of narratives, I will learn eventually.

I had the 12 hour time frame this week and had done the job early during the day since I had other things to do. Before I knew it the 12 hours time frame had passed and I still had not submitted. Does not happen that often but I just submitted the report and there were no problems. I think if it is a habit then you get dinged. I was still irritated when I was out - having a good time - and realized I needed to leave to enter my little report.
