Clover Inc.
12 Simpson Square
Tucson, AZ 85701Dear Customer,
As you may be aware, Clover has regularly received commendations for our commitment to product safety. Every item that is sold under the Clover name is subjected to rigorous product testing. When design flaws are detected, the model is modified to eliminate the problem. Furthermore, our products are built from the highest-quality plastics to ensure that you never have a problem with a Clover product.
In the unlikely event that products are released with previously undetected defects, great steps are taken to ensure that every flawed item is removed from the market and replaced for customers.
Late last month, our outstanding quality assurance team identified a previously undetected minor flaw in the air filters in our W-29 model. Since our records show that you have recently purchased a W-29 vacuum cleaner, we would like to inform you of this defect and of your right to return the product for a new one. Please be assured that there is absolutely no safety risk to you or any operators of the machine. Nevertheless, to ensure your satisfaction with the quality of our products, we would like to ask you to phone the Clover store nearest to you. The store will arrange to pick up your machine at your home at a time that is convenient for you.
Customer satisfaction is our first and foremost priority, and we would like to make sure that you are not inconvenienced in any manner. A replacement vacuum cleaner will be delivered at the time of the pickup. Moreover, customers who participate in the exchange will receive a free gift in appreciation of their business.

Subject: Shipment
Date: July 14Hi Thomas,
I’m glad I was able to reach you on the phone today before you shipped my order. As I mentioned, I’d like to change the delivery date to Friday. In addition, instead of shipping the entire order to our warehouse, please send 12 of the 65 silk lamp shades and 12 of the parchment lamp shades to the showroom on Romano Street.
By the way, I want to thank you again for recommending me to Prospero Toscani as a potential supplier for his furniture stores. We’re meeting at the Romano Street showroom over the weekend so that he can have a look at the lamps, which is why I’ll need the shades there. I’ll let you know how it goes. Please send me a revised shipping order.
Best regards,
Bryan

Re: Volunteering
Attachments: Application, Recommendation letterDear Mr. Pearce:
My name is Doris Wilson. Last week, I saw the announcement for the volunteer positions published in the weekly community newsletter.
I apologize for the delay in contacting you. I understand that the completed application was due three days ago; however, I have been out of town on a holiday. I will return on February 28 and will be able to participate in the orientation. Please note that all required documents are attached.
My time this spring is limited, but I’ll be available every Thursday. Unfortunately, I’m not available during weekends because of my café job. I’ll wait to hear from you prior to the orientation and training next week.
Thank you for your time,

Aprico to Deliver New Trains for Marshfield Trains
By Anitra Ketter
Marshfield Trains (MT), the region’s primary railway, announced yesterday that it has entered into a contract with train manufacturer Aprico for the purchase of eleven new electric trains. The decision by MT’s management came after a test run from Woodpine to Longdale revealed that the new trains can cover the 67 kilometers separating the two towns in half the time it takes MT’s current trains.
The new trains will gradually replace those currently in service, introduced by MT 19 years ago. The railway company had originally intended to complete the project in a six-year span so as to let the last phase of the transition coincide with the end of the 25-year life expectancy of MT’s current fleet. However, company officials were so excited by the performance of the Aprico trains that the decision was made to pull all current trains from the tracks within two years. They plan to upgrade the longest routes first, beginning with the distances longer than 120 kilometers.
Negotiations between MT and Aprico have been going on for nearly three years. The lengthy duration of the talks was mostly due to reluctance on the part of the government to help fund the project. Says Jonathan Addison, MT’s spokesperson, “We had difficulty convincing the authorities that buying new, faster trains, while expensive, was a worthwhile investment. Gradually, however, the government realized that adequate transportation is indispensable for the continued development and prosperity of the region.”
