15 <p>C'ttee very pleased with staff's stepping up in challenging
16 circumstances.</p>
17 <p>MS to be given the title of Acting Manager</p>
18 <p>Salary uplift to continue until new Manager in place, at least through
19 October.</p>
20 <p>Interviews and appointment of new casual staff can be done for October if

25 <title>Staff feedback on the last seven weeks</title>
26 <div>
27 <title>Problems</title>
28 <p>[missing/broken items] – consumables were often missing; loo roll
29 didn’t arrive until 15/8, soap often missing. Use our suppliers next time: fits
30 with ethos, fits our containers. E.g. one Sunday when no loo roll in any of the
31 loos.</p>
32 <p>WiFi - This impacted our own ability to do our own work, because of
33 low bandwidth and/or ‘no internet’</p>
34 </div>
35 <div>
36 <title>For next time, if there is one</title>
37 <p>Paper hand towels? We didn’t this time, worked OK? Probably some
38 use of loo roll for drying</p>
39 <p>Start and end of day procedures – define/clarify, who’s responsible
40 for what. E.g. turning <emph>on</emph> the emergency lighting is our job.</p>
41 <p>Clarify who repairs things. We do a daily inspection and fix things/bill
42 for getting them fixed</p>
43 <p>In general if there are things we agree are are responsibility that we
44 are going to do for their benefit, we will have to charge
45 for that, not clear how e.g. lump sum vs. timesheet.</p>
46 </div>
47 <item></item>
48 <item></item>
49 <item><p>Kitchen - Not our cleaners job, did CV expect it? MEK cleaned it
50 from time to time: sweeping and wiping surfaces. Performers in there? Gap(s) in
51 the licence. Food out, so mice flourished. Fridge available? “You have to name
52 and date your food, or we’ll through it away”. Buckets left with dirty water
53 in.</p> <p>Leave less cutlery/plates etc. out for them</p> <p>Use as an office
54 made cleaning difficult - should clear away each night?</p></item>
55 <item><p>Emptying bin bags, agreeing about triage (recyclable/food
56 waste/rubbish). Do we have to be responsible for all this so it can be done as
57 we would like.</p></item>
58 <item><p>Weekend cleaning is necessary, we did some cleaning on Sunday
59 and/or Monday morning (kitchen, loos, loo seats in particular).</p></item>
60 <item><p>We need to spend more time up front preparing the
61 building</p></item>
62 <item><p>Emergency lights can’t be completely covered, dimmed is
63 OK</p></item>
64 <item><p>Contact person, who is on site most of most days, for niggles (E.g.
65 shoes in the kitchen :-) (continuity)</p></item>
66 <item><p>Staffing level in general</p></item>
67 <item><p>Poster mount scarring</p></item>

70 <item><p>Discount for 4F wrt shower</p></item>
71 <item><p>One negative comment about the Sunday meeting space (HST
72 disagreed)</p></item>
73 <item><p>As an ethical workplace, how do we feel about the way CVenue treats
74 their staff, both volunteer and paid?</p></item>
75 <item><p>Sundays have gone well (Wednesdays worked well, bar steps for Tony
76 Peach and Margaret Anderson and someone else with limited mobility).</p></item>
77 </div>
78 <div>
79 <title>Was it OK? Do this again (with C Venues or someone else)?</title>
80 <list type="defn">
81 <item term="KL">More ‘unexpected work’ than
82 ‘unpleasant’</item>
83 <item term="EG">The annoying things could be sorted in the agreement,
84 including a process for things that are still unclear (e.g. the toilet leak)</item><item term="MS">Niggles rather than disasters. Worth looking for alternatives,
85 e.g. Greenside, before committing to CArts, bearing in mind that they would
86 have <emph>their</emph> teething problems</item>
87 </list>
88 </div>
