Sir,
I want to bring to your notice the negligence in the part of the new postman in our locality. Since this postman has come, the regular delivery of the mail has been completely disturbed. He is very careless in the discharge of his duties. I have noticed him delivering personal mails to children playing in the street, or to the wrong people.
I, myself was eagerly waiting for the offer letter from my new company. As the letter did not arrive on time, I called up the company. They informed me that they have already sent the letter. I am very disappointed and frustrated by your service. Considering, all these, you please take some appropriate steps so that I get my letter back.
Thanking You,
Yours sincerely,
Raj Dutta
