     1
     2   Q.   Did you recruit Jay Petrie?
     3        A.  Yes, I believe I did.
     4
     5   Q.   Did you tell him that he would be guaranteed job security
     6        unless he was caught stealing?
     7        A.  I do not know if it came up that way.  We probably had
     8        a conversation about what exactly job security was, you
     9        know, that a manager cannot fire you for an unjust cause,
    10        but say if you go and rip the store off, taking boxes of
    11        meat (which happened at our store), if they found you doing
    12        that, the union would probably try and maybe not have you
    13        fired as such, but be disciplined or whatever to a lesser
    14        extent.  But, I mean, the union cannot protect you from
    15        breaking the law.
    16
    17   Q.   Do you remember recruiting a girl called Athina Papas?
    18        A.  Yes, I did.  I recruited her with Joel Beatson,
    19        I believe.
    20
    21   Q.   Yes -- in a car, or at a place called Beckers in
    22        Grand Valley; is that right?
    23        A.  Yes.
    24
    25   Q.   With Joel Beatson?
    26        A.  Yes.
    27
    28   Q.   Otherwise Henderson?
    29        A.  Right.
    30
    31   Q.   Which do you prefer that we call him, Beatson or Henderson?
    32        A.  Henderson is his name now.
    33
    34   Q.   Henderson.  Do you remember telling her that you were
    35        organising the union as a way of getting back at
    36        Rob Pinkney for what he had said to you?
    37        A.  No.
    38
    39   Q.   You did not say that?
    40        A.  No.
    41
    42   Q.   Do you remember saying -- you do not, then, remember saying
    43        something similar to Linda Coat?
    44        A.  No.
    45
    46   Q.   As to that incident, in fact, you got an apology, did you
    47        not?  You got an apology after you complained to Cam about
    48        that incident, did you not?
    49        A.  From?
    50 
    51   Q.   From Rob. 
    52        A.  An apology? 
    53
    54   Q.   Yes.
    55        A.  No.  I would not call it an apology if someone yanks
    56        you into a small office, that is about three feet taller
    57        than you, and begins yelling at you.
    58
    59   Q.   Did you recruit, is it a girl, Lee Anne Pipkin?
    60        A.  I am just trying to remember if I did her.  I believe
