Jarron Brown, CEO

Free Writing Skills Workshop

January 31,2013

Over the last two weekso I have received several emails from various sundry employees requesting aid with spelling and grammar as well as writing and composition - all, ironically, alluding to our most unfortunate "Go Green with our Vegetarian Hambooger" marquee fiasco (of which both we and the L.A. Times are only too painfully aware).

As a result of this recently-acquired eagerness to avoid additional negative news coverage, I have decided to offer a six-week fundamental writing skills workshop; and wishing only the best for Jay's Cafd employees, I took it upon myself to contact the world-renowned business communication instructor, Dr. Graham R. Knotzi. Dr. Knotzi has over 30 years' experience teaching writing skills at several distinguished universities, including both Yale and Harvard Universities. He is currently teaching at our very own Treleaven Community College.

Although Dr. Knotzi is reputed to have a very austere and somewhat, for lack of a better word, ruthless teaching style, he has an uncanny gift for transmitting his fierce enthusiasm for proper English usage to his students.

I'm pleased to announce that Dr. Knotzi has graciously consented to teach these upcoming writing sessions!

Attending these sessions will benefit you by improving both your written and verbal communication skills. Also, for those who are interested in promotion within the company, these sessions will strengthen not only your resume skills but also your interview skills necessary for managerial positions. In addition, any employee who attends all six sessions will receive not only a $3.00 per hour raise, but also a $5,000.00 gift card to Victoria Gardens, as well as a certificate, signed by the President of the United States, stating the triumphant completion of a fundamental

writing skills workshop.

Each one-hour session will be held on Tuesdays at 7 p.m. for the next six weeks, beginning February 5th, at Starbucks in Victoria Gardens in Rancho Cucamonga.

All this is being done in a sincere effort to provide the greatest possible opportunity for both personal and professional advancement to each employee of Jay's Caf6'

I'll see you at Starbucks this Tuesday at7 p.m.! All drinks are on me!
