     3   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.  Do you have those?  Are they still
     4        behind your statement?  I have left my notes behind the
     5        statement.
     6        A.  OK.
     7
     8   Q.   If you look in (3), you say none of the various things
     9        happened while Mark Davis was Manager?
    10        A.  No.
    11
    12   Q.   And then (6)?
    13        A.  I have an example for each.
    14
    15   MS. STEEL:   You have a what for each, sorry?
    16        A.  An example for such.
    17
    18   Q.   An example?
    19        A.  That I have actually witnessed or -----
    20
    21   Q.   Right.  So the position is that when you say that it did
    22        not happen during Mark Davis's time as Manager, that is
    23        just because you cannot recollect any incidents, seeing any
    24        incidents?
    25        A.  I never saw it happen, no.
    26
    27   Q.   But you did see it happen after Ray Coton became Manager,
    28        and you say that Ray Coton showed you how to water down
    29        ketchup and mustard?
    30        A.  Yes, he did.
    31
    32   Q.   While this was going on, did the customers ever complain
    33        about this?
    34        A.  No.
    35
    36   Q.   No.  Right.
    37        A.  May I put into context the reason why he showed me how
    38        to water down the mustard and the ketchup?  It was merely
    39        because I complained it was too thick, it was not coming
    40        out of the gun, and he merely suggested to me that if I put
    41        pickle juice in it, it would aid the dispenser.  I had no
    42        reason to disbelieve him.
    43
    44   Q.   Well, you have called it a malpractice.  So are you saying
    45        now that you do not think it was a malpractice?
    46        A.  At the time I was -- I probably did not; I thought it
    47        was a tip more than anything else.  But now, as my
    48        experience of McDonald's shows, I know it was a
    49        malpractice.
    50 
    51   Q.   Did you ask Ray Coton about whether he had done it 
    52        previously and how long it had been going on for, anything 
    53        like that, when he was showing you how to do it?
    54        A.  No, I did not.
    55
    56   Q.   You did not discuss it at all?
    57        A.  No.
    58
    59   Q.   You just assumed it was a normal practice?
    60        A.  I asked my Manager for help and he showed me the way
