Business Letter (Complain Letter)

 9 BUSINESS LETTERS AND MEMOS


Dear Sirs,


My recent order which arrived safely contained two items: one Red Pyjama, and one White Stripe Pyjama.


Our daughter is four and a half months old, weighs 7 kilos, and is 61 centimetres long. In other words, she is a fairly average size for her age. Given this, we were confident that the right size of pyjama for her would be the 70 cm, which you claim will last until the baby is some nine months old. To our great disappointment, the Red is a tight fit now, while the White stripe is comfortable fit now, and may last, say, one or two months.


Misleading labelling and predictions are unfortunate in any circumstances, but doubly so when the customer lives abroad. Apart from the trouble and cost of returning the things, the fact is that our daughter needs the garments that we ordered now, and we can thus hardly afford any delay. Could you please let me know whether it is your normal policy to overestimate the age and size for which particular garment is suitable? If this is so, then we can simply take it into account when we make orders in the future.


I would like to point out that we are generally happy with your goods. It is only the question of the size which we find extremely irritating.


Yours faithfully,


Robin Purde

MY MOTHER NEVER WORKED Bonnie Smith - Yackel SYNOPSIS   In the essay “ My Mother Never Worked ,” Bonnie Smith-Yackel recollects the time when she called Social Security to claim her mother’s death benefits.

While waiting, she remembers the many things her mother did, and the compassion her mother felt towards her husband and children. When Social Security returns to the phone, they tell Smith-Yackel that she could not receive her mother’s death benefits because her mother never had a wage-earning job. A tremendous amount of irony is used in this essay. The title, in itself, is full of irony; it makes readers curious about the essay’s point and how the author feels about the situation. Smith-Yackel uses the essay to convey her opinion of work. Her thesis is not directly stated; however, she uses detail upon detail to prove her mother did work, just not in the eyes of ...

Summary and Analysis of Only Daughter by Sandra Cisneros

ONLY DAUGHTER -Sandra Cisneros Born into a working-class family in 1954, Sandra Cisneros was the daughter of a Mexican-American mother and a Mexican father.  Only Daughter originally appeared in Glamour magazine in 1990. Cisneros through this essay describes the difficulties of growing up as the only daughter in a Mexican-American family of six sons.   Historically, sons have been valued over daughters in most cultures, as reflected in the following proverbs: “A house full of daughters is like a cellar full of sour beer” (Dutch); “Daughters pay nae [no] debts” (Scottish); “A stupid son is better than a crafty daughter” (Chinese); and “A virtuous son is the sun of his family” (Sanskrit).  Contemporary research suggests that while the preference for male children has diminished considerably in industrialised nations, a distinct preference for sons continues among many cultures in Asia and the Middle East, raising concerns among medical ethicists worldwide. And, even within ...
