Full textAbstract:
This research study analysed the role that experience played in the development of bar managers’ social competencies. Given the social nature of the bar environment, social competencies were perceived to be essential managerial competencies that enable bar managers to manage employees and consumers to ensure that employee and consumer satisfaction is maintained. The literature reviewed discussed the importance of managerial competencies and the composition of social competencies. Experience was conceptualized to develop an understanding of the informal learning method through which competency development occurs. Data was captured through face-to-face interviews, which were based on the Critical Incident Technique (CIT). The data was analysed using the open coding procedures of grounded theory. This research study proposed a process to explain how experience contributed to the development of social competencies. The proposed process, which is called the Social Competency Cache Development Process (SCCD Process), ultimately indicated that experience contributed to bar managers’ social competencies through a reflection process, the residues of experience, and through the familiarity of situations and results. This research study found that experience contributed to the development of bar managers’ social competencies within a process that established an awareness of unfamiliar social competencies or reinforced the effects of familiar effective social competencies. Experience was also found to promote the transition between novel situations and familiar situations, which in turn enabled bar managers to effectively assess social situations and select effective responses to social situations. Consequently, experience improved the probability of bar managers implementing effective social competencies to ensure employee and consumer satisfaction. In essence, experience shaped bar managers’ accumulation of social competencies by promoting the addition of new social competencies or the reinforcement of existing social competencies.

Glen, Ian J. ""Community means the world to me" : an ethnographic study of a public house and bowling club." Thesis, University of Stirling, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/1893/21793.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis is an ethnographic study of two local institutions within the community of Fallin which explores how twenty-four men understand, maintain and reproduce community and belonging. Throughout, the thesis suggests that the past acts as a stable reference point for the men to deal with social change. The Bowling Club and the Pub are suggested as being sanctuaries for this type of collective remembering to take place as they still reflect a mode of life associated with the past. It is argued that imagined histories were recollected, recreated and maintained through the power of storytelling and sharing experiences to the younger generations or outsiders (Blenkinsopp, 2012; Homans, 1974). This thesis suggests that perceived threats from outsiders only serve to further galvanise the central values of their community (Cohen, 1985; Homans, 1974). Chapter Two provides a review of the literature and theoretical concepts which sets out the academic foundations of this thesis. The work of Bourdieu shapes the theoretical, methodological and reflexive nature of this project. Chapter Three introduces the ethnographic method which gives this study an in-depth account of the narratives and identities of the men in this project. Chapter Four outlines the reflexive nature of the author’s relationship with the community, the Bowling Club and The Goth and how this affects the interpretations presented in this thesis. Chapter Five provides the reader with descriptive and demographic data of the community of Fallin and the research sites. Chapters Six and Seven analyse the data and directly answer the research question through interpreting interview data and using field notes. Concluding in Chapter Eight, this thesis suggests that the version of community that the men helped to reproduce and maintain is strongly associated with a historical working-class mode of life. This thesis suggests that these local institutions reproduce historical notions of community and belonging through outside forces and incomers challenging this traditional mode of life. Of particular interest is how the younger men in the study often adopt this shared habitus and learn how to be a man through regular interactions in The Goth and the Bowling Club.

Full textAbstract:
In the 1980s and 1990s, lesbian and gay politics and queer theory problematized the concept of heteronormativity in order to denounce and call into question the normative system that privileges and rewards heterosexual identities and lifestyle. However, conceptualisations of heteronormativity have failed to destabilize heterosexuality as a norm. In this thesis, I argue that the concept of heteronormativity is insufficient to subvert the heterosexual system because it fails to acknowledge the complexity of heterosexual identities. Far from being uniform and homogenous, heterosexuality is organized as a hierarchical system. The regulation of heterosexuality is ensured by heterosexual masculine and feminine gender identities within which the acquisition of privilege and power depend on many variables and criteria.I argue that the regulatory effects of these discourses are constantly challenged in practice and that to overcome the limits of the concept of heteronormativity we have to investigate the practices and arrangements of heterosexual masculine and feminine gender identities. Moreover, we have to observe heterosexuality in 'place', specifically in places other than the home or workplace that do not reproduce the hegemonic heteronormative division between the public and private spheres. Because, if heteronormative discourses police spaces according to specific norms, heterosexuality is practised everywhere.
To do so, I went to a heterosexual cruising bar in Montreal, Le Minuit, where the clientele is typically single (divorced or never married) and 39 years old. The discourse of the 'cruising bar' label is significant in two ways. First, it gives a striking representation of what is perceived and constructed at the founding moment of heterosexuality: the meeting of women and men. Second, the discourse of the cruising bar, because of the specific characteristics of its clientele, illustrates non hegemonic heterosexuality. In Quebec, the discourse surrounding the label 'cruising bar' brings to mind images of 'losing' heterosexual identities that are seen as inadequate and lacking. In this sense, the label 'cruising bar' is heteronormative since it also defines, by default, its opposite---'winning' identities that are privileged. In the face of contemptuous discourses that devalorize their personal experiences, the patrons of Le Minuit engage in a process of reconstruction. During the interviews, informants would incessantly go back and forth between the norms and their own experiences in an attempt to both conform to and detach themselves from heteronormative discourses. At the Minuit, informants, night after night, in becoming regulars, distance themselves from their negative perceptions about 'women in bars' and men in bars, perceptions they acquire long before going out.
In order to understand heterosexuality and end its privileges we have to know how heteronormativity organises, produces and reproduces itself. Therefore, it is necessary to observe how heteronormativity organizes gender identities in everyday life. It is equally important to reveal that there are multiple perceptions and experiences of the arrangements that define heterosexual practices, which can simultaneously conform to and confront heteronormative discourses. To know heterosexuality, we must observe and listen to those who, though marginalized, are in fact at the heart of heterosexuality; those who through incessant efforts to achieve norms take part in their maintenance.

Shepard, Daniel Joseph. "A Town on Fire: The Copperfield Affair of 1914." PDXScholar, 2015. https://pdxscholar.library.pdx.edu/open_access_etds/2507.
Full textAbstract:
In 1914, Copperfield, Oregon was militarily occupied by order of the governor, Oswald West. Its town government was deposed, the city officials were arrested, and the town's saloons were closed and all liquor and gambling devices were seized. The town, previous to Governor West's interdiction, had seen a breakdown into violence and arson between two competing saloon cliques. The resulting martial law of Copperfield and subsequent court battles between the governor and Copperfield's saloonkeepers would become known as the Copperfield Affair.
The purpose of this study is to explain how and why the Copperfield Affair happened. The event which precipitated the Copperfield Affair was the collapse of the town's economy. Copperfield was a frontier town, which placed it at greater risk of economic failure. The failure of the two construction projects necessary for its economic success led to a violent contest for customers among the town's three saloons, resulting in several arsons, eventually drawing Governor West's attention to the town.
The Temperance Movement in Oregon is a second factor influencing why the Copperfield Affair occurred. Governor West cared about the problems of a failed town in the middle of nowhere, because he was a proponent of prohibition and the violence in Copperfield presented an opportunity to make a statement for the Temperance Movement.
Finally, Governor West relied on the concurrent evolution of two important definitions relevant to the state executive. One was the increasingly general definition of martial law and how it could be used by the governor. This definition, by 1914, allowed Governor West to legally occupy Copperfield. Second, the development of the Progressive Movement at the beginning of the twentieth century also coincided with greater public desire for a powerful and energetic executive in order to achieve reform. Governor West personified the Progressive executive, as a person who got things done and supported the sort of social reforms the Movement favored, like temperance.
By combining the development of a powerful state executive, with great military powers, a governor and public in favor of prohibition, and a weak frontier town suffering violence from the liquor trade, we arrive at a situation which keenly encapsulates a moment in time in Oregon history, one in which a governor would use such extreme measures to crack down on what was a local squabble.

Full textAbstract:
M. Tech. Business AdministrationThe important role that Small, Micro and Medium Enterprises (SMMEs) play in creating jobs and income generation cannot be overemphasised. While the contribution of small businesses to the economic development is acknowledged, small businesses are faced with many obstacles that limit their growth and/or survival and most of them ultimately close down. This study examined the problems and challenges faced by shebeens and taverns in Soshanguve Township. These problems and challenges were attributed to the following factors; capital, managerial skills and experience, government support, legislation and regulations, competition with big businesses, criminal activities and entrepreneurial capabilities.

Full textAbstract:
The emergence of the relationship marketing approach in the marketing field is
seen as a paradigm shift from the traditional marketing mix of ‘4 Ps’. As a result,
organisations began to look for ways to develop strong and lasting relationships
with their customers. This paradigm shift resulted in relationship marketing being
researched extensively. Most research on relationship marketing has been done
from the perspective of the organisation. The uniqueness of this particular study
lies in the fact that research has been done from the perspective of the customer
(licensed tavern owners).The aim of this study is to investigate the perceived value
of relationship marketing from the perspective of the customer (licensed tavern
owners). The study focuses on the relationship between the supplier organisation
(Distell Limited) and the customers (licensed tavern owners). The empirical study
was quantitative in nature. Data was collected using self-administered
questionnaires. The research study focused on a sample of 100 licensed taverns
in the Durban Metropolitan Area of KwaZulu-Natal, of which 96 responded. The
findings of the study confirmed the importance of relationship marketing activities
as applied by the supplier organisation to the licensed tavern owners. Significant
importance was placed on relationship marketing strategies: the results rated
social bonds as most important, followed by structural bonds and then financial
bonds. The most important contribution of the study is in the development of a
framework for the management of long-term relationships. This was done through
the construction of a model which can be used for the development and the
management of long-term relationships in the supplier-customer context. The
current study focused on one sector of the liquor industry, namely the licensed
tavern business.Thesis (MBA)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, 2012.

Full textAbstract:
The compatibility of on-site consumption alcohol outlets as land use is predicted by the
acceptance level of the utility or disutility they enjoy amongst residents in a neighbourhood. The
density of alcohol outlets is argued in literature as correlating to the significant positive rate of
amenity effects that include property crime, alcohol related arrests, drunk-driving, fatal and
severe alcohol-induced accidents, violence and assault amongst many others. The problems
associated with on-site consumption alcohol outlets have been insistently brought to the attention
of the Umjindi Local Municipality in the Ehlanzeni District area in Mpumalanga Province by the
residents of the Emjindini neighbourhood. The study is based on the hypothesis that the high
density of on-site consumption alcohol outlets contributes to the incompatibility of such outlets
with residential areas. In addressing the research sub-questions and validating the research
hypothesis, the study adopted various methods (including land use surveys, interviews,
administration of questionnaires, literature review and document review) for the collection,
analysis, interpretation and discussion of data. The study reveals that the higher density of alcohol
consumption outlets is significant in areas of low socioeconomic status. The Emjindini
Townships are located with the density of 1 on-site consumption alcohol outlet per 263 people.
Liquor legislation in South Africa leaves a lot to be desired in its guidelines for alcohol outlet
density, public participation, location radius and local authority involvement. In addition, our
findings showed that the significantly unacceptable level of impact thereof is experienced
especially in the night, in areas characterised by the high density of on-site consumption alcohol
outlets. The on-site consumption alcohol outlets are seen as compatible land uses in residential
areas for the reason that, the unacceptable level of impact is insignificant during the day. The
adoption of preferred and practical guidelines related to the locality and density of on-site
consumption alcohol outlets, compatibility performance standards and public participation are
recommended for policy and practice. The amendment to the liquor law is subsequently proposed
in this study.M.U.R.D.P. University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban 2014.

Full textAbstract:
Nightclubs and restaurant bars have become major sources of noise pollution particularly in areas close to residential dwellings. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of noise emanating from nightclubs and restaurant bars on the community of Melville, Johannesburg. This study followed both qualitative and quantitative research methods. A total of 100 respondents were randomly sampled within the study area. Qualitative data was collected using a structured questionnaire. A calibrated sound level meter was used to measure environmental noise levels at 10 different measuring points. The research finding revealed that about:
87% of noise levels measured with the sound level meter did not comply with officially acceptable levels of 40dB at night.
69% of respondents indicated that the main source of noise is pollution is nightclubs.
78% of respondents described noise as annoying, disturbing and unwanted.
57% of respondents indicated that members of their household have suffered from sleeping disorders due to noise activities at night disrupting their sleep patterns and resulting in irritability and fatigue.
The noise measurements were taken on weekends and public holidays during the day from 10h00 to 14h30 and at night from 22h00 to 02h30. The research findings revealed that the residents of Melville experienced high level of noise at night with nightclub as major source of noise and as a result the majority of the sampled population complained about irritability, fatigue and sleeping disorders due to exposure to noise.
The outcome of this research indicated the need of health education on the adverse effects of noise pollution and the need of sound insulation at places of entertainment. Implementation of a noise management policy is needed in order to effectively control and manage the noise pollution in its area of jurisdiction and regular noise level monitoring by constantly taking noise measurements by law enforcements officers.Department of Environmental Sciences
