     1        people's attitude is monitored?
     2        A.  Yes.
     3
     4   Q.   If you get low marks for attitude not only could you not
     5        get a pay rise, you might be out of the door eventually?
     6        A.  Well, it depends upon the severity of the attitude.
     7
     8   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I hope in any operation that is what
     9        happens.
    10
    11   MR. MORRIS:  Is that correct?
    12        A.  It could be.
    13
    14   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Mr. Morris, we will have our five-minute
    15        break now and then we will carry on.
    16
    17                       (Short Adjournment).
    18
    19   MR. MORRIS:  If we can go to bundle four, document 117, please?
    20        In fact that is the one we had before, I believe, with the
    21        wage slip in it.  About midway through that document,
    22        unless the Plaintiffs know, it may be in another file.
    23
    24   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  We will find it this way.  How far through?
    25
    26   MR. MORRIS:  It is in the middle of that tab .
    27
    28   THE WITNESS:  I have it.
    29
    30   MR. MORRIS:  It is Joanne Bishops' Crew Members Review.  It is
    31        just after some wage slips.
    32
    33   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I have a Joanne Bishop, some wage slips.
    34        Have you found it?
    35
    36   THE WITNESS:  Yes, I have my Lord.
    37
    38   MR. MORRIS:  It is entitled 24.1.86 at the top right-hand
    39        corner, yes?
    40        A.  Yes.
    41
    42   Q.   There are a few afterwards?
    43        A.  Yes.
    44
    45   Q.   If we just look at the personal attributes, say, for
    46        example, on attitude it says:  "Desire to progress and
    47        towards store success", yes?
    48        A.  Yes.
    49
    50   Q.   If someone consistently got 0 for that, would it matter to 
    51        the company? 
    52        A.  Well, I think what it would indicate to the Restaurant 
    53        Manager is that in that particular factor she needs some
    54        corrective training, advice, guidance, whatever.  We try
    55        not to be a hiring/firing firm.  We try to encourage our
    56        people to develop and improve.  If someone consistently
    57        got, consistently got, 0s -- it depends what you mean by
    58        that -- I mean, if they got a nought, I would say that
    59        would be a terrible score to get.  I do not think 1.5 is
    60        particularly good, but it would indicate that she needs
