Dear, Customer Service
Please take in consideration my problem, repay me $399.
On April 29, 2009 I purchased a Casio Exilm EX-Z9 Camera from a local Wal-Mart, after I then proceeded home and took the camera out of its box. After I read the manual on how to get started on page A-3 I then followed the direction clearly and concisly turn turned the camera on everything was fine, but when I press the capture button nothing would happen. I then took the camera back to the store for a so they can have a look at it so hoping they could help me use it or tell me whats wrong but they could not figuar it out eithier. I have purchased your purducts before and never had any complants on them, and I know that this will not happed next time I buy one of your purducts.
I would be very grateful if I was refunded my $399 thankyou.
Sincerely,

From: Keith Wheat

Subject: Countdown to Performance Appraisel


Countdown to Performance Appraisel


This is a reminder to all supervisors that, April 15 is the deadline for performance appraisals. This year appraisels are very important do to this hectic year we`re having, do to that James Robinson, director, Human Resources asks you to follow these five steps in completing the appraisels.

Each employee should have a performance plan with three or four main objectives.
Should mention three strengths the employee has, three areas for improvement. Should focus on skills, rather than on things like being late frequently.
Use a scale of 1 to 5 to assess employees: 1 = consistently exceeds requirements; 5 = does not meet requirments at all.
Meet with employees to discuss the appraisal.
Finally supervisors who want to resrve a space at the training workshop should contact Lynn Jeffers at ljeffers@rainco.com, workshop on Februray 20 for those who want to update the`re skills.

Thank you for taking the time to read over this message, I believe that these steps will help you with the appraisels.
