     1        into the oil .....

     3   Q.   Right.  So if hustle is about co-ordination, as you put
     4        it  -----
     5        A.  Hustle is about speed and efficiency, I did not say
     6        co-ordination.  So I understand, it is speed and efficiency
     7        by the Company's own definition -- not my definition.
     8
     9   Q.   OK.  So if it is speed and efficiency, as you say -----
    10        Yes.
    11
    12   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I have to say, Mr. Morris, I think you have
    13        probably not chosen the best example for that ---
    14
    15   MR. MORRIS:  I have done it for a reason.
    16
    17   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  -- because it is a cooking one, is it not?
    18
    19   MR. MORRIS:  Yes, I have done it for a reason.
    20
    21   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Carry on.
    22
    23   MR. MORRIS (To the witness):  This is something which, never
    24        mind management training and company safety policies, is
    25        getting down to the nitty-gritty of what workers are
    26        expected to do, a great long list of things here?
    27        A.  In other words, you are saying this is a set
    28        procedure?
    29
    30   Q.   Yes.
    31        A.  By my definition, a set procedure, yes.
    32
    33   Q.   Yes.  Do you know why hustle would not be included in, for
    34        example, that document?
    35        A.  I do not see any reason why it should be.  This is a
    36        procedural document that says:  "This is the way that you
    37        fry a particular product".  Hustle is about serving the
    38        customers, about making sure that things are delivered
    39        speedily and efficiently.  I do not see why it would be in
    40        there; I cannot imagine why it would be.
    41
    42   Q.   So hustle would not be appropriate in terms of the cooking,
    43        is that your opinion?
    44        A.  Well, this is about producing a particular product, and
    45        it goes through the steps that make that product right.
    46
    47   Q.   If you were encouraged to hustle, it would not be
    48        appropriate if you were cooking something because you would
    49        have to do it carefully?
    50        A.  As I say, you cook a product, you prepare a product in 
    51        a set method and that is the set method for it. 
    52 
    53   Q.   So if hustle was down there, that would be something that
    54        would concern you, would not be appropriate?
    55        A.  It would not seem to me to be appropriate to that
    56        particular operation.
    57
    58   Q.   All right.  If you go back to No. 1, page 1?
    59        A.  This is Chicken McNuggets?
