We need to talk about the VisuXSD web cam, which is part of our video conferencing system. We’ve received several customer complaints about it recently.
Britt Hepler
4:24 P.M.
Customers claim that when they joined video conference calls the visual feedback from the web cam froze. Apparently, the audio continued to function, but nothing could be seen.
Kate Erickson
4:25 P.M.
This is obviously a huge problem because the system is usually purchased specifically for conference calls.
Percy Ramsay
4:27 P.M.
Our in-house engineers believe the issue to be attributed to a wiring error. This affects the transmission of visual images from the camera to the computer.
Britt Hepler
4:28 P.M.
Great, so we’ve discovered the problem! Then can I send replacement devices to customers who submitted complaints?
Kate Erickson
4:29 P.M
Not yet. Let’s put that aside. We should perfect the device first. Percy, you’ve been working with the engineering team. Do you have a status update?
Percy Ramsay
4:32 P.M.
They’re currently re-wiring the device. They will test the solution thoroughly, so I’m not sure how long that will take.
Kate Erickson
4:33 P.M.
Britt, as soon as new web cams have been manufactured, I'll let you know. Then you can mail replacements to the customers who've contacted you.
Britt Hepler
4:35 P.M.
Okay. Afterward, I will respond to customers and explain how we fixed the issue.

Hello,
I've taken a course with the Ryerson Education Center last fall and loved it. Earlier this week I saw a flyer advertising new courses, and the money management session would be ideal for me. I need some professional training in how to create and maintain a budget. Could you tell me whether or not this class is full? I know I have missed the registration deadline by two days, but I hope that as long as there are still spaces open (and the class hasn't started yet), I might be able to still take it. Please let me know if this would be possible.

Subject: RE: Order Confirmation
Dear Mr. Arp,
Thank you for your e-mail. I reviewed the attached breakdown that you sent me, and I’m afraid that I did notice a pretty significant mistake.
Your e-mail says that I ordered fifty (50) boxes of a product, but I actually only ordered fifteen (15). I was rather shocked to see such a high number in the order, but I suppose the man on the phone simply misheard me. After all, the numbers do sound similar. Could you please make sure the amount due is updated before payment gets taken out of my account?
Secondly, would it be possible for you to send me a new confirmation in which you itemize all the expenses including the ones that aren’t currently listed? My company needs to see these charges broken down on separate lines. I hope this won’t be too much work.
Thank you,
Jessie Patton

Subject: Temporary parking arrangements
Hello,
I went to your mall this morning and I parked in the reassigned lot. I know that this was the first day that your parking garage has been closed, bu11 had a lot of difficulty getting my parking ticket validated. I first asked the cashier to do it as I was paying for a purchase, but she said she wasn’t authorized to validate Kent Street parking tickets. She had to direct me to the mail’s information desk. The process was too complicated and time-consuming.
I think it would be better if cashiers could validate parking directly at the check-out. Please consider making this change.
Regards,
Natasha Lange
___________________________
To: Store Managers
From: Dave Voyles
In response to several customer complaints about parking validation, we are making a small change to our policy. Instead of directing customers to the mall information desk, all cashiers in individual stores will now be authorized to validate parking tickets for our temporary lot. This way, shoppers can get their parking validated at the same time they pay for their purchases. We believe that this process will be much easier for everyone involved. Please inform your staff members of this change and forward any questions to me.
Thank you,
Dave Voyles, Baxter Creek General Manager
