Day 209 - 25 Jan 96 - Page 75


     
     1        there on the side.
     2        A.  It must be this one.  I have got it, yes.
     3
     4   Q.   Thank you.
     5
     6   MR. RAMPTON:  I understand that you are not saying that Paul
     7        Scot Shepherd was in any way mistreated?
     8        A.  No.
     9
    10   Q.   So we can forget about him, can we?  If he wanted to work a
    11        lot of shifts in a row that is up to him, is it not?
    12        A.  You could say that but, you know, if he -- if he had
    13        been paid a reasonable page he would not have had to do 60
    14        hours a week.
    15
    16   Q.   That may be a matter of opinion, Mr. Logan.
    17        A.  That is what I was getting at.
    18
    19   Q.   Mr. Gore, I think you described this afternoon what you say
    20        about him.  Is that all that we need to know, from your
    21        point of view, about Mr. Gore or do you want to add
    22        anything now?
    23        A.  No, he was -- yes.
    24
    25   Q.   Do you assert in relation to Mr. Gore that he did an undue
    26        number of night closes, or not?
    27        A.  What I say is that he complained to me directly of
    28        doing too many closes and then when I did the schedule
    29        I tried to make an arrangement with him to do less closes.
    30
    31   Q.   That I understand.  What is your case about Mr. Stoakes
    32        treated badly by scheduling?
    33        A.  Similarly to John Gore; he did not like doing many
    34        nights and he seemed to be getting a lot of nights at one
    35        stage.
    36
    37   Q.   Right.  Can you tell us which stage?  The date I have here
    38        is 93/4ish.  I am very interested in the dates, Mr. Logan.
    39        A.  Right.  Well, it is not a specific time he was badly
    40        treated.  I would say because he was not considered to be a
    41        high performer in the restaurant his shifts always tended
    42        to be quite unsocial shifts.
    43
    44   Q.   You are sticking to 1993/94, are you?
    45        A.  Yes.  Could we know when he started in the Company,
    46        because if he started in '92 I think it would probably
    47        include '92 as well.
    48
    49   Q.   Not offhand, but you are sticking to '93/94, are you?
    50        A.  Could I check his PRs? 
    51 
    52   Q.   No, no.  I would like to know what you say about his being 
    53        treated by scheduling, badly treated by scheduling?
    54        A.  I have come up with that date because it is just a day
    55        I have come up with; he was treated badly from soon after
    56        he started.
    57
    58   MR. MORRIS:  He started in May '92, according to this.
    59
    60   MR. RAMPTON:  Mr. Logan ---
