Questions 11-15 refer to the following email.

From: "John Trimbald" <jtconstruction@img.com>
Subject: Customer Complaint
To Whom It May Concern,
I have trusted the Shoe People to protect the feet of my employees for over ten years now. I
recently purchased a few pairs of boots from your company for my crew. Though my men
were initially satisfied with the boots, the soles began to fall apart on them after just twelve
weeks. This was extremely surprising considering they came with a six year warranty. The
boots are unsafe to wear because my men are pouring hot concrete. Please respond as soon
as possible with instructions on how I can return the boots and receive a refund.
Thank you,
John Trimbald

Dear Mr. Trimbald,
Thank you for your e-mail concerning the poor quality of our rubber soled black
workboots. A representative will be by your office next week to pick up the damaged
boots. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you and your crew. Along
with five new pairs of workboots for your crew (we included one extra pair), we have
enclosed a free year's supply of sole protector spray. In our retail stores, this spray is
always recommended to buyers who work on heated floors. This should have been
brought to your attention at the time of your initial order (received by telephone on June
12, 2014. Please excuse our oversight. To date we have had no complaints about these
workboots from customers who have used the protector spray. However, should you use
the spray and find that you are still unsatisfied with the boots, please return the boots and
spray for a full refund. Thank you for supporting The Shoe People. Have a Happy New
Year.
Sincerely,
Stijn Temmerman, President
