     1        Managers.  That is not the case.
     2
     3   Q.   What is the position normally, then, in terms of who would
     4        be present in a First and Second Assistant Managers on each
     5        shift?
     6        A.  I think the sort of bottom line is to have a salaried
     7        Manager present.  When I was a Manager and a Supervisor,
     8        the idea was to have a salaried Manager present and,
     9        perhaps, two Floor Managers, one taking care of the front
    10        counter and one taking care of the kitchen area; but on a
    11        busy Saturday, for example, we may have all the Assistant
    12        Managers, salaried Managers, working in the store, and then
    13        maybe Mark would run the shift, the First Assistant would
    14        take care of one area.  So there would be a subdivision of
    15        responsibilities consequent with the hierarchy, if you
    16        like, within the restaurant.
    17
    18   Q.   So, on a usual day, when it is not a busy Saturday, there
    19        would be either the Restaurant Manager, the First Assistant
    20        or the Second Assistant there too?
    21        A.  On that particular shift?
    22
    23   Q.   Yes.
    24        A.  Yes.  I mean, there would be a day shift and a night
    25        shift, basically.  So there would be -- the ideal situation
    26        was to have a salaried Manager on the day and one on the
    27        night, and then that gave the flexibility for the other
    28        salaried Manager to have the day off or part of their two
    29        days off or be on a course, or whatever else that is
    30        required.
    31
    32   Q.   But sometimes those Managers would not be available and so
    33        the Floor Managers might have to take responsibility?
    34        A.  Right.  So whether or not it was down to holidays or,
    35        primarily sickness and holidays, when we would then look to
    36        someone's, the more experienced Floor Managers to be taking
    37        care of the shift.
    38
    39   Q.   The classification of crew members into either full-time or
    40        part-time, was that not done by the number of hours they
    41        worked?
    42        A.  The number of hours they were available to work.
    43
    44   Q.   You said it was done according to whether their sole source
    45        of income from employment was with McDonald's?
    46        A.  Yes, but generally, in fact, in all the cases I can
    47        probably recollect, everybody who required full-time
    48        employment had no other form of income.  So obviously their
    49        only source of income would be their full-time job, whether
    50        it was working for McDonald's or anybody else. 
    51 
    52   Q.   But there might have been some part-time employees who, 
    53        their sole source of income was ----
    54        A.  Such as the students?
    55
    56   Q.   Yes.
    57        A.  Certainly.  They would probably work the weekends.
    58
    59   Q.   But were they -- what I am getting at is would they be
    60        classified as ----
