MEMO

To: All medical employees
From: Ted Thomas, President, Brentwood Hospital
Re: Relocation
Date: March 5
In order to accommodate increased inpatient demand and overcome capacity issues, our hospital is relocating our main building to the Marshall Building. Because this relocation will sufficiently increase our yearly budget, the final decision was made after a careful break-even analysis to determine the patient volume required to make revenues equal to the expenses of the relocation of our hospital. While the relocation is good for business, it also means that we have outgrown our original space here in the historic Foster Building. The Marshall Building is an adjacent medical office building which is almost double the size of our current location. It has also ample parking lots for our patients.
As discussed at the monthly meeting on January 15, our relocation will take place on Monday March 20. We have contracted the services of Uptown Commercial Movers to help us pack our items. We will be providing all our employees with a special packet containing information about the move, including a description of what each person will be responsible for packing and a comprehensive timeline for the week of the move. New office assignments and sketches of the Marshall that show the layout of the emergency center, medical wards, and waiting rooms will also be provided.
Before we move our offices, we will notify all of the patients and their families about our relocation. We have to assure them that there will be no difference in quality in our medical services.
On March 10, all employees are welcome to visit the new building to become acquainted with the inside of the office. As a leading hospital in this area, we should resume work as soon as possible. Thank you.
10. 
Why is Brentwood Hospital moving to a new location?

B It needs more space to meet medical demands.

Dear Mr. Parker,
I am writing to withdraw my membership from your online languages courses. In your advertisement, you said that if I purchase a course online, I can get another instructor"s course free. In addition, I was told that I would receive three textbooks free of charge. I paid $100 through my credit card and I chose the class with Instructor Kevin Smith.
I was very excited to receive all three textbooks. I was greatly disappointed, however, when I opened the books. I found out that the textbooks are not for the class that I purchased. Actually, I should download the textbooks and print out them by myself. Since I don"t have a printer in my house, it is very inconvenient for me. I was also frustrated with your free course which was recorded 8 years ago. You never explained this when I called you about the class.
I also got the impression that I would get a book certificate that I can use to purchase books and other materials from you. I did not find a book certificate in the package. I wonder what happened to all the guarantees you have indicated in your advertisement. Please let me know what action you will take to correct this mistake. I hope to hear from you in a week"s time; otherwise, I think I am entitled to receive a full refund.
Jim Morrison

Hometown Businessman
By Grace Morrison

With two repair shops already established in the city and a third to open next month in Middleton City, Miles" Repair Shop has become well known in the community.

Peterson recalls. Peterson makes a point of working at both of his grandfather"s current locations, personally overseeing the operations. However, he can appreciate that his growing business will make him delegate some responsibilities. So, next month, he will bring on long-time friend Ron Harris to his newest store.
His new repair shop will purchase many parts and supplies from local auto parts store. He says he considered opening his own auto parts store, but ultimately he decided against it. "Shifting into other areas will compromise the quality of our services, and I won"t let that happen."

T-Mart"s Efforts to Protect Environment
By Janet Lee

Madison, WI(March 15)-Some large corporations have a vested interest in being socially responsible to the environment. Last Thursday; T-Mart donated $20 million to one of the environmental organizations. The funding will be used to protect the rain forest in Africa. Mr. Thomas Campbell, C.E.O of T-Mart, said they made the donation to support Africa Wildlife Center"s vital work and also to focus attention on the rain forest and wildlife in it.
According to Mr. Campbell, he learned of the problem from a colleague who attended a lecture by Oscar Green, a biologist at the Wildlife Center. Mr. Campbell also heard that the Wildlife Center coordinates with local and state officials to track many endangered animals due to forest degradation, protect their population, and reduce rain forest destruction.
After meeting with Dr. Green, Mr. Campbell encouraged T-Mart"s marketing department to come up with a way of providing ongoing support to the Wildlife Center. As a result, T-Mart decided to give benefits those corporations that use eco-labeling on their products and display their products in the designated area near the entrance to receive more attention from customers who are environmentally conscious. "We aim to give our customers a greater understanding of the importance of rain forest and wildlife," said Mr. Campbell.
Many local business owners, including Mr. Campbell attended Dr. Green"s presentation yesterday at the Wildlife Center. Dr. Green thanked Mr. Campbell and said that a single individual person like Mr. Campbell who acknowledges this concern should try to lead a life in which everything he does is to better the environment. Other people will follow his lead, and it will impact the rest of society"s responsibility for the Earth.
