My Dream Job: Working at Accounting Office

Dear Hiring Manager

I read the advertisement in Seattle Chinese Post for a position as a accountant's assistant. I am very interested in this position and I am the ideal candidate for this position. I have over 7 years of experience working at accounting office. I am good at math and accurate about work. For example, I always send correct invoices to the customers. Every time I type an invoice, I am very careful to check the order number, the items, the price. I make sure everything is correct before I print out the invoice.

I am also a responsible and hard worker. I always make sure my customers pay their bills on time. I call American customers in the morning, and call Asian customers in the afternoon. I am bilingual, and know that Asian customers don't like people ask money in the morning. If my customer doesn't answer my call or call back to tell me when they schedule to pay, I would have a salesperson to stop selling to that customer.

I am very creative, for example, I always creat the report to show what type loan the drivers make more money . Working at accounting office is my dream job. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely
Mei Jin Cai

The immigation Law should be Change

The immigration law should not be changed. I am strongly agree the kid was born in the United State is an America citizen. My kids always said they are American. Some people use this law for personal purpose. The Seattle Chines Post Said: " The rich Chinese woman choice delivery the second kid in the America. The benefit to them are they spend less money to have second kid in China. The main purpose is the kid become America citizen. But this reason can't change the kid's right : the kid was born in the United state become an America citizen.

Illegal immigrants not allow to work. In the America history, many immigrants come to this country is illegal. The immigrants work hard to Support America. America is the strong country in the world because they have immigrants. Many scientists in America come from different country. They create many good idea to make America success. The first airplane designer is a Chinese engineer.

The Benefits of Public School

I sent my kids to public school from elementary school through high school. I am an immigrant:English is my second language. So I felt this was the only decision I could make. Public school is free. I don't need to worry about money to pay tuition every month. The school provide free school bus transportation. The classes are good: Washington has some of the best schools in the country. And last but not least, my kids love school lunches because the schools give them American food instead of Chinese food.

Before go to school, my kids didn't speak English, also my kids were scared to meet strangers people. My kids have different color friends at school. My kids told me they never speak Chinese at school with other Chinese classmates. They like to speak English at school. So everyone can understand what they talking about. After my kids came home from school, they always smile and talk to neighbors, I asked: " You don't know them, so why do you talk to them?" My kids told me that's the American way. They have learned to become American by being in a public school environment.

My sons learned how to read and write English at public school. They also learned math and science at school. My oldest kid got a high enough score to attend University of Washington. My other kid has been in APP classes since middle school. Now he is in Garfield High School - A Seattle public school. His science class will help kids get some college credit. Public schools have very good program for kids to go to college. Interlake High school for example is public school. It is very good high school in the United State.

Public school is for everyone: even if you have money, you should you're your money for college tuition. My sister-in-law's kids are in a private school. After she pays tuition, she has to spend a lot of money for uniforms and school activities. Her kids reading and writing skills are worse than my kids. I strongly recommend that parents-especially immigrant parents-send their kids to public school. Public school is good for every kids' education.
