Hey Bill,
I just got an email that was supposedly from you. But fortunately, I knew immediately that it wasn’t. It had an attachment that I did not open. The heading was “Verify Info” so I knew it was spam. Just to be safe, I changed my email password. You need to change your password too. I also would let other friends know that they should be on the lookout for an email that says, “Verify Info,” and delete it.
Now for the good news! I will be in town next week, and I look forward to seeing you soon.

Support the School Levy!
There is a proposed increase to the school levy on the ballot in next week’s election, and many of our citizens are complaining about it. Nobody wants to pay higher taxes, but guess what? Higher taxes are necessary. The costs of maintaining our schools increase every year due to inflation. School enrollment also increases as more students move into the district, and this growth in the student population requires more school funding. On top of that, money is needed to fund important programs like music and the arts, which are always in danger of being cut.
If we don’t increase the school taxes, the children of this community are the losers. My wife is a teacher in this district, and she has told me some sad facts about our schools. For example, did you know that our school district has not been able to purchase any new textbooks in the last ten years? Nor have the schools been able to buy any new library books or any new equipment for science and technology labs during that time. The number of music and art classes has been cut over the past few years along with the number of languages that are taught. Moreover, school district employees have not had an increase in wages for the last three years, and they have to pay more for their medical insurance.
What does all this mean? This means that employees actually make less now than they did three years ago. As a result, we have lost several talented teachers to other school districts. All these changes are bad for our community.
I urge you to support the proposed increase to the school levy in the upcoming election. Even people who don’t have children should support the school levy. After all, high-quality schools are very important to maintaining property values.
City Center Sleep Clinic
Do you suffer from insomnia? Do you sometimes sleepwalk? Do you snore too loudly? These and other sleep disorders are our specialty at City Center. We are a nonprofit community clinic that serves downtown and nearby neighborhoods. City Center charges minimal fees for its treatment programs and offers no-cost support groups. If you are plagued by sleep problems, we believe we can help you because our team goes the extra mile for every patient to ensure that everyone receives the best possible care.
Sleep difficulties can be caused by numerous factors. To determine the factors affecting each patient, our program begins with a complete health diagnosis that leads to a full evaluation of why someone is experiencing a particular sleep disorder. Our board-certified medical team develops a treatment plan based on these results. Some treatment plans include prescription drugs, while others rely more heavily on over-the-counter medications, therapy and counseling, and certain lifestyle changes that could include a change in diet, elimination of alcohol and caffeine, and establishing a daily exercise routine.
Dear Mr. and Ms. Tabak,
I really enjoy having Julia in my class. She is a very happy child and has an outgoing, cheerful personality that is infectious. When Julia is on task, her classwork is at grade level; however, I want to alert you to a problem that Julia is having in school. Her desire to talk with her classmates rather than follow directions needs to be addressed as the classroom rules and consequences have had no impact to date.
Julia is so busy socializing with her classmates that she often does not know what is going on in class. Since she isn’t paying attention, she has a hard time doing her work. She loves participating, but since she hasn’t been following along she doesn’t always know how to contribute. She particularly enjoys activities at the board. Julia is falling behind, and her behavior is affecting her classmates.
As a first step in formulating a strategy to help us solve this problem, I would like for us to meet. I am available on Tuesday or Wednesday afternoons next week at 4:00. Please let me know if either of these days works for you.
Yours sincerely,
Vergie Hampton

A Pragmatic Approach to Employment
By Thomas Low
Finding a new job can be daunting, particularly if you are looking for a first job in a new field. One approach to the problem is to pursue a temporary job. Temporary jobs often can be easier to come by than long-term positions. Securing a temporary position at a desirable company can lead to permanent employment if the employer likes your work and attitude. As you prioritize the steps in your job search, keep in mind that a temporary job at a solid company is the ideal way to get your foot in the door. Additionally, if you are not exactly sure where your specific career interests lie, temporary work can be just the thing to expose you to a variety of career possibilities. Simultaneously you will be developing new skills and gaining real-world experience that can eventually help you land permanent employment. Never shy away from working as a “temp” because it can be the initial step that takes you down a fresh and rewarding career path. |
A Lackluster Approach to Employment
By Michelle Tay
Settling for temporary work can be a dead end and a sure compromise of your career goals. With limited job security, you are reconciling yourself to a limited future. Yes, temporary work provides a paycheck, but it does so at the price of security. Planning a financial future is challenging at best for anyone who makes a living hopping from job to job. Most temporary workers receive only a fraction of the salary earned by permanent employees. Additionally, the temporary employee can be stigmatized as the company short-timer and excluded from key meetings, email updates, and news of significant organizational developments. Permanent employees have been known to resent temporary employees and regard them as a hindrance to potential raises or opportunities for overtime hours. And remember that promotions and raises are not within the grasp of the temporary employee. Be proactive, avoid settling for less than you aspire to, and keep looking for that permanent position. |
