Dear Mr. Sandler,
This month’s business review meeting is scheduled for Thursday, November 15. As you know, this meeting is a great opportunity for US to assess our operating plan and to make any adjustments that might help US keep up with constant changes in the marketplace. As an advertising agency, it’s crucial we stay informed about the newest market trends. Therefore, I was excited when I heard that Tsuyoshi Ito, manager of our Japanese branch, would be visiting this Friday. In order to take advantage of his expertise and knowledge, I would like to change the meeting date so that Mr. Ito can attend.
This will be Mr. Ito’s first time in the country, so I would like you to pick him up from the airport. A company car will be provided to you for this purpose. I will e-mail again once I have more details concerning Mr. Ito’s arrival time.

Joint Systems is a company that tries to take every opportunity to give back to our community. Therefore, I am urging all of our employees to take part in the upcoming community park cleanup sponsored by the city of Harrisburg.

The community park cleanup will be held next Friday, February 18, from 1:00 to 5:00 P.M. Employees who wish to participate will leave work at lunchtime, yet will still be paid as if they had worked a full day. Volunteers are asked to bring supplies such as protective outerwear, tools, insect repellent, trash bags, and snacks.
A shuttle bus will depart from the company parking lot at 1:20 P.M. on Friday to take volunteers to the volunteer location. If you have a specific preference concerning the type of work you would like to do, please contact Event Organizer Don Lewis at 435- 555-6768.

Five Star Financial Bank
===========================
Listed below are the various home loans available to members of Five Star Financial Bank. Learning about different kinds of loans will help you make an informed decision. Review the loan choices below and decide which loan is right for your situation.
Fixed-Rate Mortgage Loan - This loan ensures that your interest rate and monthly principal repayment remain the same during the entire period of your loan. This loan protects you from rising interest rates and may be a good choice if you plan to live in your home for a long time.
Adjustable-Rate Mortgage Loan - Your interest rate remains fixed for the initial 5 years, and then is adjusted annually. Typically, this loan has a lower initial interest rate than on a fixed- rate mortgage.
Interest-Only Mortgage Loan - During the initial 5 years of the loan, you are required to make payments on interest only. This option is suitable for those with fluctuating incomes. When your finances are tight, you can make the interest-only payment. And when your earnings increase, you can make payments on principal.
Home Opportunity Loan -This special loan is designed for first-time home buyers. You do not need a large down payment and a perfect credit rating in order to qualify for this loan. Madison Business Update
November 15—Sun Microchips is the largest producer in the country of the integrated circuits that go into computers, smartphones, and other digital electronics. The company has recently built a new factory in Madison and will begin operations starting in January of next year. The chief executive officer of Sun Microchips, Melinda Piers, stated that, “As the market for consumer electronics continues to become larger and larger globally, companies like Sun Microchips are expanding to meet the needs."
"We are looking to hire a variety of people such as factory workers, personnel employees, and accountants. We expect the opening of the factory to create over 200 jobs in Madison,” said Ms. Piers. She noted that the company will try to hire local applicants first, but that those living outside of Madison are also encouraged to apply.
Applicants must submit their resume by November 25 by e-mailing Tina Zimmerman at [email protected]. Sun Microchips will be holding interviews next month on two separate dates. Those applying as general laborers for jobs on the assembly line should schedule an interview between December 3 and 8. Those interested in positions in personnel, accounting, and customer service are required to schedule an interview between December 9 and 11.

Subject: Re: Tee Time and Dinner for 10
Hello,
I saw your ad in the newspaper and I have a couple quick questions about your deals. First, we have a group of ten golfers. Now I know most courses generally limit a group to four players to keep up the pace of play, but I was really hoping you could make an exception for us and allow two groups of five. We will even rent golf carts to ensure that we don’t cause a delay. As for the $5 gift cards to the pro shop, I was wondering if they could be pooled together for one large purchase. It is my son’s birthday and I would like to buy him a new putter and they are awfully expensive these days. $50 bucks could go a long way to giving him a great gift!
We would like to tee off around 11:30 A.M. on Saturday, July 20th, and then have dinner there at about 6:00 P.M. Please write back to confirm our tee time and answer my queries. Thank you for your time!
Have a great day,
