UR BAD
June 15, 2008
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing today
to complain of the poor service I received from your company on June 12, 2008.
I was visited by a representative of That Awful Company, Mr. Madman, at my home
on that day.
Mr. Madman was one
hour late for his appointment and offered nothing by way of apology when he
arrived at noon. Your representative did not remove his muddy shoes upon
entering my house, and consequently left a trail of dirt in the hallway. Mr. Madman
then proceeded to present a range of products to me that I had specifically
told his assistant by telephone I was not interested in. I repeatedly tried to
ask your representative about the products that were of interest to me, but he
refused to deal with my questions. We ended our meeting after 25 minutes
without either of us having accomplished anything.
I am most annoyed
that I wasted a morning (and half a day's vacation) waiting for Mr. Madman to
show up. My impression of That Awful Company has been tarnished, and I am now
concerned about how my existing business is being managed by your firm.
Furthermore, Mr. Madman's inability to remove his muddy shoes has meant that I
have had to engage the services, and incur the expense, of a professional carpet
cleaner.
I trust this is not
the way That Awful Company wishes to conduct business with valued customers—I
have been with you since the company was founded and have never encountered
such treatment before. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss matters
further and to learn of how you propose to prevent a similar situation from
recurring. I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
V. Angry

Dear Mr./Ms. Last Name:
I am interested in
the assistant position advertised in XXX. I am currently employed as
Legislative Director for Assemblywoman XXXX, Chairperson of the NYS Assembly
XXX. I accepted this position because of the emphasis on the writing and
research skills which are applicable to your requirements for an author’s
assistant. My experience in the NYS Assembly has afforded me the opportunity to
become familiar with the consolidated and unconsolidated laws of the State of
New York. I also have extensive experience in legal and policy research.
In my position as
Legislative Director for Ms. XXX, I prepare her personal legislation which
deals with issues relative to her position as Senior Member of the NYS Assembly
Standing Committee on XXXX. In as much as she is Chairperson of the XXX
Committee I am, of course, heavily involved in the current welfare and Medicaid
reform movement.
In response to your
search for an assistant, I believe my experience in the Legislature, and my
research and writing skills qualify me for consideration. If you would like, I
can provide you with current samples of my work.
To further acquaint
you with the specifics of my background I am enclosing my resume. I hope you
will consider me for this position. I look forward to meeting with you and
discussing my qualifications in more detail.
Sincerely,

5. Memo
TO:
Senior Management Team
FROM:
RE:
Developing a Smart Paper Plan
DATE:
I’m writing to let
you know that we will soon launch an effort to devise and implement a
company-wide “Smart Paper Plan.” As you might know, we use several tons of
paper a year in the office. That’s perfectly normal for an office our size; by
one estimate, an average office employee creates approximately 350 pounds of
wastepaper a year. But by carefully marshaling our resources, we should be able
to reduce that amount significantly, helping the environment while helping our
own bottom line.
The core components
of our Smart Paper Plan will be:
ü Conserving
paper, by relying on email distribution, using half-sheet fax cover sheets,
using both sides of a sheet of paper, and other means.
ü Recycling
paper, by redoubling our efforts to make sure we capture every scrap of
recyclable paper.
ü Purchasing
ecologically superior paper, made with significant postconsumer recycled
content and other important environmental attributes.
We’ll begin the
effort by creating a Smart Paper Team that includes representatives of the
various departments. The team will lead a company-wide diagnosis of our current
paper practices and develop a draft Smart Paper Plan, complete with specific
recommendations, for consideration by senior management. We will together
review the plan, make any changes, additions, or deletions, and then begin
implementation.
This is an important
effort to the company, not just because it will save us money, but because it
can make an important contribution to the environment. The production of paper
takes an enormous environmental toll, significantly reducing forests, emitting
toxic pollution from production processes, and creating a great quantity of
paper products in landfills. By reducing our own contribution to these
environmental problems, we can be better corporate citizens.
I believe it will
also offer us important employee morale and public relations benefits as well.
I hope that as we devise and implement the plan we will be able to foster a
top-to-bottom commitment to smart paper practices, and that we will all be
proud of the contribution the plan will make to the environment. Of course,
once we have developed and implemented a plan that we can be truly proud of, I
expect we will be eager to brag a little to our customers about the plan.
In short, I hope our
efforts to devise and implement a Smart Paper Plan will be helpful to us on
many fronts. I hope you’ll join in this effort enthusiastically. Thanks very
much
