Revise the following e-mail message. And the formatting of the message is to be scored.
TO: Andrea Kana
This message is in response to your recent inquiry about mail costs. Your message of April 30 said that you wanted a brief explanation of what is being done in Mail Services to cut back on overall costs. I can tell you that I've been doing many things to cut costs.
For one thing. l' m trying very hard to locate duplicate names and addresses inadvertently included in our mailing lists. This problem is particularly difficult when we merge multiple mailing lists. Another thing l'm doing relates to envelope size. Departments that use envelopes larger than 631 by 1131 are costing us a lot of money. which they do not realize. Therefore. 1 am making a proposal to all departments to limit the envelope size.
Finally. l' m looking into the possibility of presorting some of our first- and third-class mail. Mailings that are presorted are charged less.

, the mobile phone , and the Internet are all instrumental in the continuing development of the Information Age. Previously , in the Industrial Age , raw materials and physical labor were the key ingredients in the creation of wealth. Today, however, wealth depends on the development and exchange of knowledge. Individuals in the workforce offer their knowledge , not their muscles. Knowledge workers get paid for their education and their ability to learn. More recently , we are hearing the term information worker (i-worker) to describe those who work with information and technology. Regardless of the terminology, knowledge and information workers engage in mind work. They deal with symbols: words, figures , and data. Some knowledge workers in the US worry over the outsourcing of their jobs to skilled workers in other countries. Outsourcing overseas is a reality. Jobs that can be condensed to a set of rules are likely to go first either to workers abroad or to computers. Although we cannot predict the kinds of future jobs that will be available , they wil1
undoubtedly require brainpower and education. Existing jobs , in both good and bad times, give way to shifts in technology and competition. Recessions are followed by recoveries , and the economy adjusts , as it has always done in the past. In the current climate of outsourcing and changing job requirements , workers need to be flexible , to learn continually, and to have strong basic skills.
As a knowledge and information worker , you can expect to be generating , processing, and exchanging information. Whether you work in m-commerce (mobile technology businesses) , e-commerce (Internet-based businesses) , or bricks-and-mortar commerce, nearly three out of four jobs will involve some form.of mind work. J obs that require thinking, brainpower, and decision making skil1 s are likely to remain plentiful. To be successful in these jobs , you wil1 need to be able to think critically, make decisions, and communicate those decisions.
Management and employees will be working together in such areas as product development , quality control , and customer satisfaction. All workers , from executives to subordinates , need to think creatively and critically. Even in factory production lines, workers are part of the knowledge culture. One of the secrets of a well-known carmaker’ s success in the past , said a chief executive of the Japanese carmaker, "is that the company encourages every worker , no matter how far down the production line , to consider himself or herself a knowledge worker and to think creatively about improving his particular corner of the organization.
