personally to my senior in order that any personnel problem can he handled
swiftly to the benefit of all concerned.
6. I have been informed that production as measured by statistic is one of
the key factors used to judge my performance, and that a rise in

informed that declining production or production that levels off over a
long period of time may become grounds for dismissal.
