Dear Mr. Hankins,

Having functioned as the travel agent for your administrative personnel for the last several months, I would like to serve as the full-time Travel Director for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

After rescuing the Steelers staff from the "2000 air travel near-disaster" and revamping the winter itinerary, I'm fully aware of the complexities of the team's yearly travel plans. Without a doubt, I can deliver economical and dependable arrangements.

Notice in my enclosed resume that I have the ideal professional marriage:

• Strong background in the travel industry
• Working involvement in professional sports

I have a proven record of facilitating the smooth transportation of groups under pressure-and I can't think of anyone under more pressure than your players during football season!

Thank you for your consideration of my application. I'll check in with you next week to see when I can fit into your interview calendar.

Sincerely yours,

Geraldine Bostwick
