Question 1-3:
W-am: Hi, Carlos, Did you see the new schedule for next month’s fitness classes? I scheduled you to teach the two classes you requested.
M-Au: Oh wow, thanks. Hmm, I see the two classes are back-to-back.
W-Am: Yes, is that a problem?
M-Au: Well, the aerobics class is scheduled to start right after my weight-lifting class. This means there’s only five minutes to put away the exercise equipment and get ready for the next class, and who can do that?
W-Am: Ahh, good point. Why don't I just change the start time of your aerobics class? Let's have it start ten minutes later.

- September 8 — [1] - This comes as a relief for residents on both sides of the Canadian and American borders as many shoppers from Lockland often take the one-and-a half-hour drive into Canada to shop at the Cashco warehouse there. - [2] - This usually results in long waits at the border and a very crowded Canadian Cashco with more than half the shoppers from across the border. Many Canadian residents of Brentwood are resentful of the large crowds in their tiny town and Lockland residents have complained that the closest American Cashco is located almost 5 hours away. - [3] - "I'm very excited," said Lockland resident Janice Burrows. 'T heard it'll be huge. Maybe Canadians might start coming here to shop. But all kidding aside, we've been petitioning for a branch here for a long time." - [4] - The new Lockland Cashco is rumored to become one of the largest warehouses in America with full petrol service, pet center, restaurant, cafeterias, garden center, and medical clinic.

September 24
To our passengers:
Beginning October 1, Lichtenberg Air will ask passengers to pay an extra 20 percent in baggage fees. As you know, the reason for this increase is because of the rising fuel costs. We regret that the baggage fees have to be increased.
However, passengers are still allowed to have one carry-on bag free of charge. We would also like to emphasize that this has been the first increase in baggage fees for Lichtenberg Air in ten years.
As always, our goal is to provide safe and reliable transportation at a reasonable price. As the price of fuel lowers, we expect to eliminate the fee increase.
We thank you for choosing Lichtenberg Air.Brixton Science Journal

Dear Sunny Day Cleaning,
I received your invoice for the services we received in February, which 1 have to say were excellent. I see we were charged $95 dollars for each time you serviced our offices. This is what we had initially agreed upon and have been paying for your services since last j year at this time. However, Rod Sanford told me we’d be receiving a $5 discount each time you visited us because we have arranged for you to clean our other location just off 1 of Hwy. 26. He said that this new price would be starting in February. I have included a copy of the e-mail Rod Sanford sent me. Could you please adjust the price to reflect the new agreement and send US a new bill? I’d appreciate it. We look forward to seeing you again.
Thank you for your assistance,

Hello Mr. Alberts,
I am writing on behalf of my company, Action Services. Our company specializes in creating personalized flower arrangements, gift baskets, and novelty gifts. Recently we have been going over our books and realized we were paying too much to our current shipping company. We would be interested in offering you the opportunity to take over our account if you could provide US with some competitive rates. I have included a recent invoice of shipping costs with our current carrier, Express Corp. If you feel that you could beat their prices, we would like to try to work with you. Please let me know what you think.

Thank you for contacting US at Emergent Solutions. I have taken a look at your invoice from your last bill from Express Corp. and I believe that we can beat their prices. I would be happy to send over my account director to try to tailor a delivery package that is perfect for your needs. Since most of the shipping that you do is within the state and composed of relatively small items, I believe our express courier service will be perfect. We use fuel- efficient hybrid vehicles to run our small deliveries and are able to pass the savings on to our customers. As the Account Director, I look forward to working with Action Services in the future.

Subject:First Quarter Performance Review
Dear Aaron,
I just wanted to give you a heads-up that the performance evaluations are going to be going forward as discussed. I know this was an area of stress for you in the fourth quarter of last year, so I wanted to give you plenty of advanced warning. You will need to bring your numbers up significantly if you want to pass the review. As you know, we have been struggling to make our sales goals over the past several years, and I am afraid Mr. Jones is determined to trim the staff if things don't change. I have far exceeded my target numbers, so I have included an attachment with some possible leads for sales. Give them a shot.
Good luck,

James,
Thank you so much for the leads. I will get on them right away. I don't know why my sales are slumping so much lately in the technologies division. It seems like every sales technique 1 learned in school isn't working anymore. I am thinking about changing industries if I don't pass our review when it comes out in March. My sister is opening a beauty parlor and she was asking me to become a barber. Imagine that! Anyway, thank you again for the notice about the possible layoffs coming up. I will try to get my numbers up to standards, but I think that Mr. Jones may have already decided to let me go.
All the best,
Aaron

A new ride-sharing app in gaining in popularity as bus and taxi fees continue to rise and commuters continue to look for more efficient routers. Jordan Mills, a small business owner who commutes into downtown from his home in Brentwood has to transfer buses twice, then, take the subway to get to his workplace. Not only did he find the commute quite costly and uncomfortable in the rush-hour crowds, he found it time- consuming. But with the availability of the new app Freewheel, he found that he saved time and money with a quick ride available within 5 minutes of flagging for a ride from any location he was at. “This is definitely the future of transportation,” said Jordan. “I can’t get to work and back any other way now”.
Jordan Mills isn't the only commuter who feels this way. An estimated 2000 new commuters in the city of Sherwood alone are expected to use the ride-sharing app within the next year and almost 500 new drivers have signed up to the program.
Freewheel is available for download at the Freewheel website and at Miniapp.com and Amacom.com.
===========================www.freewheel.com/history
The idea for Freewheel began when Michael Owens and his co-workers first started a carpooling program at the company they worked at. Owens had to transfer the subway three times and the bus twice to get to work and although he could drive, the parking was limited. Fie managed the group by assigning different drivers and mapped out routes to each co-worker’s homes. Fie created an app that everyone could connect and communicate through so that the designated drivers and passengers could easily find each other. Five years later, Freewheel is now a major company with tens of thousands of users, both drivers and commuters around the country.
Freewheel is dedicated to keeping the cost of commuting down and the efficiency up. In time, it hopes to bring its services to people around the world.
