Jessica Jang 9:27
I just got a message from a staff member in sales saying that salaries for her department have not been deposited yet. They should have come in yesterday afternoon.
Jessica Jang 9:28
Has anyone else gotten similar complaints from other departments?
William Stuttgart 9:34
I just checked with production and they got theirs, but those in purchasing did not. Neither did the employees in finance. Oh, and my salary hasn't come in either.
Jessica Jang 9:35
Nor mine. This is quite strange. I checked with research and development and they got theirs. I wonder if Erin's heard anything.
Erin Hinkle 9:37
Sorry, I was on the phone just now. None of us in human resources has gotten paid, apparently. I discovered this issue earlier this morning, and I just contacted Beacon Bank to find out the cause of the problem. They promised a response in the next 10 minutes.
Erin Hinkle 9:44
So, the bank says they had some technical issues with a new payment software system that they recently started using. They've resolved the problem now and those who haven't been paid yet should have their funds within the next hour. Let me know what happens.
William Stuttgart 10:34
I just received notification from the bank thatthe funds have been sent.
Jessica Jang 10:35
Same here. Erin, could you contactthe other departments to confirm thatthe problem's been solved?

OK. I can do that. - Questions 162=164 refer to the following report.
Report for City Council Executive SVIeeting, March 18 Options from the Planning Department
The Truman Expressway is now 50 years old and is no longer fit for use. The surface is becoming less even, and the underside of the elevated road is crumbling, posing a potential hazard to the pedestrian areas and smaller roads that run beneath it. There are three main options for how to handle these issues with the expressway.The first is to invest money in the repair of damaged sections. This is the cheapest possible option, as well as the quickest. However, some community activists have noted that people do not like having to walk along the dark streets underneath the expressway to reach the waterfront on the other side. The city has been trying to increase low visitation rates to the waterfront area, and making road repairs only would not address this problem.
The second option is to rebuild the roadway underground. This would allow us to maintain the same traffic capacity and provide more space aboveground for other structures or buildings.
However, it would be extremely expensive and possibly disruptive.The final option is to tear the expressway down and widen Elmview Road, which currently runs beneath it. This could help to expand local retail, as shops at ground level would be able to tap into a large customer base. However, Elmview Road would not be able to take all of the traffic that currently runs on the expressway. Much of this traffic would try to bypass the city by taking smaller roads to the north, probably through the community of Greenville. At the same time, the residents of this community would most likely be against using their city as an alternative route due to an increase in through traffic and noise on their roads.

The Armitage Comes to Fullerton
The BlackweU Maritime Museum in Fullerton will be holding an exhibition called The Ocean King, which features the history of The Armitage, the first American luxury passenger ship to travel across the Pacific Ocean from the United States to Japan. The exhibition will run from July 1 to October 30 and includes a 5-meter replica of The Armitage, reconstructions of the ship's interior, along with over 500 artifacts that were recovered during private expeditions. There will also be a short film presentation which attempts to shed more light on the mystery behind the ship's unexplained sinking in 1898."This will give an opportunity for everyone to see what the ship really looked like inside," says museum curator Jonathan Wiley. "People can walk through the exhibits as if they were passengers on the ship and see the places where some of the richest and most influential people stayed during their trip."
The Ocean King exhibit aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of The Armitage's history, importance, and impact on the shipping industry. It will be open Tuesday to Sunday from 9 A.M. to 7 p.m. General admission is $20, while students get a 50 percent discount. Children six years old and under are admitted for free.

MEMORANDUM

Detroit-based Generix Motors announced last Friday the recall of its GX-490 Sports Coupe for replacement of a defective safety system. All owners of the vehicle have been requested to bring them to the nearest Generix dealership for an upgrade. Generix said the company has already sent out official notification letters to those in possession of the vehicles.
Due to faulty programming in the car's computer system, front-seat passenger airbags have been found to malfunction on occasion, and Generix will be installing an update and replacing two small vehicle components. In a press statement written by Davis Martino, public relations director for Generix, the problem is described as minor. Martino also writes that Generix takes every precaution for the safety of those that drive our vehicles, and even the smallest problem should be rectified. The recall is expected to cost the manufacturer close to $70 million, but most agree that such a responsible corporate reaction can only be beneficial for the public perception of Generix Motors.
Those in possession of the recalled model may visit www.generixmotors.com/outlets to find the nearest location that can do the necessary work. Or the manufacturer can be contacted directly with regard to the recall by e-mailing [email protected].

SUBJECT Recall
DATE April 22Dear Madam or Sir,
I purchased a GX-490 Sports Coupe six months ago. I recently read in an article from my local newspaper that your company has recalled the vehicle. I have not received a notification letter yet, so the news was surprising to me. I would like to bring in my carfor the necessary work but am unsure of where to take it. Unfortunately, I could not find any dealerships listed for my region on your Web site. The nearest Generix outlet seems to be in Madison, and that is quite a long distance for me to drive. Could you please let me know where I should take my vehicle? I live in a small town in Wisconsin called Monroe, with a zip code of 53556. Naturally, the closer to my town the dealership is, the better it will be for me. I hope you will notify me as soon as possible either by e-mail or by contacting me at (608) 555-3456. This is a serious issue for me, as I have two young children that ride in the vehicle, so I would like to take care of the problem quickly.
Sincerely,
Graham Worthington - Questions 181-185 refer to the following advertisement and letter.

Dear Ms. Draper,
I enjoyed meeting with you recently and appreciate being able to consult with someone about my branding needs. I've only just opened my business in Denver and could really use some help promoting it.
I have discussed our consultation with my business partner Walter Preston, and he remembers a promotional campaign you did for Shasta-Clear that was very successful. So, we have agreed to hire your firm to help us come up with a branding plan for our bakery. We would like to get things underway as soon as possible, so please let me know when you are free to meet with Walter and me in person. Walter and I are generally free after 11 a.m. on weekdays.
You mentioned during our meeting that your firm would require complete descriptions of all products that we sell if we decide to proceed with the branding work. I have enclosed a list of all our goods, including the ingredients they are made of. Should you require any additional information before we meet, I would be happy to supply it for you. We look forward to working together with you and hope to hear from you soon.

Subject: Compensation
Attachment: Rental receipt
Dear Customer Service,
On May 25,1 was scheduled to fly on Flight 535 from Cleveland to Pittsburgh. However, the flight was canceled due to mechanical problems. While at the airport, I was promised a flight voucher as compensation for the inconvenience. 1 never claimed it and would like to follow up now. Also, I'd like reimbursement for an incurred expense. I had a job interview to attend and could not wait until the following day. So, I rented a car and drove to my destination. I have attached a copy of the rental receipt in case you need it. I hope you can help me resolve this matter.
Sincerely,

Subject: Re: CompensationDear Ms. Flowers,
I am sorry to hear of your inconvenience. Let me correct the situation. First, our system indicates that you are entitled to the voucher. We normally tell customers that they will get it within four weeks. I apologize if our airline staff failed to convey this information properly at the time your flight was canceled. The voucher has been mailed and should arrive shortly. Second, all of the passengers on your flight were offered a night's stay at an airport hotel. Our policy states that we can reimburse a passenger with exceptional circumstances up to the price of the hotel stay. Your situation qualifies since the car rental amount was less than this cost. To proceed, complete the attached form and mail it to us along with your original receipt. If I can assist you further, please contact me again. Thank you for being a loyal, valued customer.Yours Truly,

Instead, we will have Dr. Connor Aromdee from Thailand University. In addition, Ms. Woodbine from Global Lending will be leaving the conference early, so she cannot moderate the panel discussion. She suggested that we invite the minister of the Singapore Economic Development Board to take her place. I have contacted him, and he has accepted the invitation. If there are any other changes to make, I'll let you know in the morning. After that, the program will be finalized.
Thanks!

Date: August 9
Subject: Re: Inquiry
Dear Ms. Terrance,To answer your question, the reason your request was rejected is that the book you wanted to renew (Call No. 147.09WUD) is from another library with different lending policies than our own, and our online renewal system is not set up to reflect them. If you check the sticker on the back of the book, you'll see that the library where the book is from only allows reference materials to be renewed a single time. Unlike the other items on your list of active loans, you have already renewed this item once before. Please note that it is due tomorrow.
Thank you.
