Dear
Sir/Madam,
I
am writing to you to apply for the position of teacher at Hogwarts School,
having seen the advertisement in the newspaper.
I
feel I would be excellent for the position as I perform extremely well as part
of a team, but can work independently to complete tasks. In addition to this, I
am reliable, hard-working, and have good communication skills.
You
will also see from my CV, which I have included with this letter, that I have
five years’ experience of teaching and a university degree in spells. I have worked
in both the state and private sector, and have a track record of achieving
outstanding results. Furthermore, I have leadership experience, having been
both a Head of Department and Head of Faculty in two of the schools I have
worked in.
I
am sure you will agree, therefore, that I am the ideal candidate for this
position. I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours
faithfully,
Jane
MacGonagall

Dear
Sir/Madam
I
am writing to express my disappointment about a bad case of food poisoning I
recently experienced after visiting your establishment.
I
visited with my family last week and, I have to say, overall, the experience
was very pleasant. The food was excellent, the service was tremendous; the food
arrived quickly and the waiter was very polite. I had the Lasagne, my wife had
the veal and my two sons had the fish and chips. The next morning I was woken
up extremely early by sharp, painful stomach cramps. Unfortunately there were
no Paracetamols in the house to help soothe the unbearable pain that I was
experiencing. I spent the rest of the day running in between my bed and the
toilet (I’ll spare you the gory details, but let’s just say it was far from
enjoyable). I also vomited on several occasions.
The
most disappointing aspect of all of this, however, is that I ended up having to
take the day off work, but, even worse than this, I had to miss my son’s play
at school; I think you’ll agree, that is something no child should ever have to
experience.
I
would like to make it clear that I fully intend to visit your establishment in
the future, as I have had many enjoyable meals there in the past, however, this
would not be possible if there was not some kind of compensation for my
unfortunate experience, such as a full refund or free meal for myself and my
family.
I
look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Yours
faithfully,
Mark
