Dear Mr. McMahn:
I learned of your opening from a friend of mine, David Kilcollin who is employed as the night manager at Geary’s Campbellton City branch.
I would like to submit my enclosed resume for consideration.
For the past eight years, I have been employed as an assistant cook at Almo’s Cafe in donwtown Halifax. I began working here part-time as a server 11 years ago while I was completing a three-year program in banking at Prince William College. Shortly after I graduated, one employee retired, so I was offered a position as an assistant cook. Enclosed, please find one letter of reference from Ms. Janet Rinehold, the owner of Almo’s. I have also enclosed a letter written b Mr. Matthew Broad, Almo’s head cook.
My specialty is strawberry jelly pastries, which have received numerous compliments form both customers and staff. In fact, our strawberry pastry is called the “Rhea”, and is listed as such on our menu.
I would be delighted to move back to Amherst to live with my elderly parents. My mother’s health is not good, and it is getting harder and harder for my father to help her. In addition, my parents live on the same street as your main supermarket, so commuting would be very easy.
I am available for an interview at your convenience. Thank you very much for considering me as an applicant, and I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely yours,
Rhea Frederic

Hi Miriam,
I just wanted to let you know that I picked upall the name tags at Alfred’s Copy and Print Shop. There are 210 name tags for the attendees. This matches the number of registrants we have on the list that you e-mailed to me this morning. Janet Trafford and I checked all the names to make sure that nobody had been omitted, and that no names had been included twice.
I also received an e-mail just after lunch from Mr. Kevin Ryan. His math midterm exam at Ryers University was supposed to be on October 28, but it has been moved to the morning when he was scheduled to work. I immediately telephoned Ms. Sandra Garcia, who has mentioned that she was available to work any morning, and she told me she does not mind working during that time. Mr. Ryan aslo has no problem with this change. Just to make sure there is no confusion about this, I will make this change to the schdule and make copies to distribute tomorrow evening.
Have a nice evening.
Regards,
Calvin Meeks
