However, by the time the caterer describes the menu, diet, and the Always Available Menu, by the time the patients decide what they want, it is time to for the catering associate to move on. There is very little time to search for a menu and describe the process of ordering. Therefore, this leads to confusion for patients.

The Courts found that although Mr. Beatty was the Chief Executive Officer, when comparing his position to those of other CEO’s he did not face the same challenges e.g. financial management, industry competition or quality control that many CEO’s in the private sector face. This was not to say that he didn’t have important duties. As well, the Courts looked at his age of 50 and the availability of similar employment.

This meant that his transferability of his specialized skills, knowledge and expertise to other senior positions in the industry is very limited.
