Subject: Meeting on Thursday

Dear Uma, Phoebe and Neil

Our monthly update meeting will be held this Thursday at 10:00 in room 247. I’d like you to come prepared to give an update on all of our projects and also to present your latest sales figures. We’ve had problems starting and finishing on time in the past so please arrive a few minutes early and plan to stay focused for the entire two hours.

I’ve recently learned that Larry Collins, our regional manager in Manchester, has unfortunately resigned at short notice. We’ll need to discuss interim duties to take up the slack left by Larry’s resignation so please come prepared to make suggestions about how to deal with any work that may be affected by Larry’s departure.

Finally, we need to discuss again the continuing problem of the mess in the kitchen area. Despite the fact that we’ve discussed this several times already, someone is still leaving dirty dishes in the sink almost every day. This is unacceptable and whoever’s doing it needs to take responsibility.

If you have any questions or comments, please let me know. I’m looking forward to seeing all of you on Thursday.

With best regards
