MEMO
To: Katy Phipps, Personnel Officer
From: Gary Campbell, Design Manager
Date: 19th November 2003
Subject: New vacancy
Sam, the technical assistant in the children's clothes section, has decided to leave on Dec 1st. I'm not sorry, as he had no computer skills. We should insist on that in the ad for a replacement. We usually demand clothes industry experience, but it isn't really necessary - good people can learn very quickly - which means we could use the local paper instead of Clothing Weekly. At the moment, we're short of staff in Sportswear, so I want the new person to start there.
Thanks.

Subject: New vacancy
Please note Gary's memo. Sam Cosgrave's leaving on 1 December, so we'd better advertise asap, and aim to get someone from 24 November. Remember the changes to job titles - a technical assistant is now called a design assistant.

The camera was sent on Dec 21,2003. In Feb of 2004 I began calling the store to find out how long it would be. I was given a run-around every time. "I'll call you back", "I don't have that information for you", etc. I never got any calls back. I finally spoke to a young man on the last day of March 2004, who I bothered enough to give me the number of the place they had sent my camera to. I had been told several times that they were not allowed to give this number out. I called myself on March 30 and was told that they had just received my bill of sale for proof of warranty 6 days before I called. The camera is now fixed and on if s way back to me. Future Shop is essentially at fault for me having to wait over 3 months for a camera that only took 1 week to fix. They will not talk to me about this either.
When did the customer send the camera for repair?
A.May, 2003.
B.December, 2003.
C.February, 2004.
D.March, 2004.
