SUBJECT: Freeport Store
DATE: July 11To Whom It May Concern,
My name is Alice McClain. Yesterday, my husband and I visited the Perseus Mart in Freeport, where we had an unpleasant experience involving an employee there. We were shopping for a humidifier and requested assistance from Tim Nelson. We just moved from an area which is not dry during the winter months, so we had a number of questions about the basic functions of the machine and how to operate it. Not only was Tim unable to answer our questions, but he contradicted himself with some responses. When my husband pointed this out, Tim become rude and insinuated that we, not him, were at fault for not knowing about the product. We immediately left the store and went across the street to Electromart, where we were treated pleasantly and our questions were answered. We had expected to become loyal customers of Perseus Mart like we were in Albany, but it appears that won’t be the case.

Subject: Application
Date: September 28
Dear Mr. Carter,
I received your application for the position of assistant editor here at Viscount Publishing. Unfortunately, I regret to inform you that the position was filled by an internal hire this morning.
I did, however, look over your entire application, and I must admit that I was impressed with both your resume and the reference letters that were submitted in your application packet. You have a great deal of experience editing children’s books, and I am quite familiar with three of the books that you have worked on while at Milton, Inc.
It just so happens that Viscount is in the process of opening a children’s division, and we are currently looking for new staff members, while I realize you applied for a position editing young adult fiction, your experience makes you a top candidate for a job in the new department. If you are interested, I will gladly pass your resume on to Ms. Mary Farnsworth.
However, I should point out that the children’s division will be in Boston, not New York, and that you need to give me a response no later than tomorrow afternoon since a decision on who to interview will be made soon. Time is of the essence, so please respond to me quickly.
Sincerely,
William Folsom

Dear Mr. Robertson,
Thank you for taking the time to visit my company and to give a presentation on your firm's products. Your talk was lively and enjoyable, and it provided us with insight regarding your company's newest line of products. We at RX Products are especially interested in the container-sealing machine you spoke about in brief as we feel that it might be exactly what we need. We are opening a factory in Brazil together with Ramos Manufacturing, and we are worried about the humidity there. As you know, high humidity levels make it difficult to seal containers properly. We currently use sealers manufactured by Robinson, Inc., but the product was discontinued by the company a few months ago. Not only is your sealer new but it also appears to use the latest technology, which we anticipate will improve its efficiency. I would like to enter into talks with you regarding the purchase of your company's sealing machines. At present, however, the machine's price is too high. Perhaps your company can be flexible on pricing if we order a significant number of machines. I realize that you just returned to Birmingham, but would you mind coming back to Pensacola next week? We are in a hurry to make a deal as our factory is set to open on January 10.
Sincerely,
James Matters
