From: Sales manager

Subject: Changes to allowances

Hello, everyone,

We have seen that the last four years have been exceptionally good for us in the marketing arena. All of you as sales consultants have contributed to the progress achieved by the company. This contribution has been appreciated by the company in terms of various allowances, including the 2,000 purchase allowance and a 15 discount on additional purchases.

As we are all aware, the company's performance in the last few months has not met its due expectations. Due to this, we are facing a major economic downturn. In the best interests of the company's and our future, some changes in our purchase allowances have been made. The new purchase allowance would be 1,000 for purchase of clothing from the current line of products, and any purchase beyond this allowance can be made at a 10 discount. These changes are effective from the 1st of December.

These changes are temporary measures to restore the financial situation of the company. Your cooperation in this matter is highly appreciated.

Thanks,




WWatsford

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
