1 it, then it was something that I would do with all the
2 stores within my jurisdiction at that point in time,
3 including West Ealing.

5 Q. If I was to ask you about any particular phone call you
6 made, would you remember any particular phone call you made
7 to that store?
8 A. Well, I doubt if I would be able to give you any great
9 detail about any particular phone calls I would make
10 because they are usually related to either sales, what was
11 happening with the store at any particular given time.
12
13 Q. Can you give me the details of one phone call that you made
14 to that store in West Ealing when you were Senior
15 Supervisor of the area at that time? If you cannot
16 remember, say you cannot remember.
17 A. When I would call the store on a weekly basis it would
18 be in relation to the previous week's sales, the previous
19 week's labour, what was happening with the store at that
20 point in time, did the Store Manager have any problem, did
21 he need any help, etc.
22
23 Q. Can you think of any specific phone call that you made?
24 A. Well, not back to 1984, I cannot remember a specific
25 phone call to any store, let alone West Ealing.
26
27 Q. Could you remember any specific visit, describe a specific
28 visit that you made to that store and the purpose of it?
29 A. I did a full field there at one point in time where the
30 Supervisors came to the store with me, and that is where we
31 actually grade the quality, service and cleanliness of the
32 restaurant.
33
34 Q. Do you remember the grades, the specific grades?
35 A. To the best of my recollection, the grades were Bs,
36 B minus, B plus.
37
38 Q. Was that as an average or do you remember any specific
39 sections of the audit, what the actual grade was? I mean,
40 I cannot remember the examples of what was in the audit
41 now, but, for example, on -----
42 A. Well, in the audit, from a quality point of view, we
43 actually do what we call observation checklists on the crew
44 members, where we observe how they perform their duties and
45 responsibilities on a particular area.
46
47 Q. Yes, but I am talking about for that particular store at
48 that particular time, can you remember a specific grade?
49 A. Yes, I have just given you three grades, B minus,
50 B plus and a B.
51
52 Q. So you recall that the West Ealing store got what grade for
53 its use of OCLs?
54 A. Well, it is not just a use of OCLs. It is a much
55 bigger process than just OCLs. Quality is made up of
56 OCLs. It is made up of grill times. It is made up of
57 calibrations of the grills. There is a lot more into it
58 than just OCLs. There is a lot of detail goes into making
59 up any specific grades.
