Sample Letter for Business Contact

Mary,

Attached is an Excel file which includes information about hours, mileage, and properties completed.

An issue has developed regarding our communication.  When we first met, we communicated in a friendly, professional and outgoing manner.  Yet since, when we have talked over the phone, I feel like you are talking down to me, as if I am dimwitted or slow.  The more questions I ask you, the more I feel like you talk down to me.  This has been my fault.  I misjudged the detail required for this project and have asked more questions, for what, I am guessing, you see as a simple project.

I asked you lots of questions because I wanted to do a high quality job.  Your have led me to believe that you want me to keep the project and our communication simple.  From now on, that is what I will do; keep it simple :)

I must also ask something of you.  I know cannot expect to receive the same high regard I receive in the other areas of my life.  Therefore, if we have further conversations in person, or over the phone, I would appreciate it if you spoke to me as an intelligent peer.

I take full responsibility for allowing this inequal communciation to develop and hold no ill feelings towards your person.

As far as the job goes, it has been fun.  I think its been kind of nice to have to have a job, for once, that does not involve high stress, lots of teamwork, and dressing up everyday.  Cruising around, listening to music, lots of 'Rick time' and seeing parts of Memphis I have never seen before are all perks of the job.  Thank you for the opportunity.

 

Best regards,
