Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing this letter in order to apply for the job I saw advertised online. I would be really grateful if You would consider my application for this vacancy.

I am a 16 year old high-school student, living in Manchester. I live about 10 minutes from  your company. After finishing school I hope to find a job in accounts, so this job is a great opportunity for me to gain experience which undoubtedly will be helpful in my future career.

In the past I have worked in McDonalds as a cashier, so I have experience in working as a team. What is more I enjoy studying math and am a decent student in school.

When it comes to my personality, I would describe myself as a calm, but decisive person. I enjoy working as a team, but I do not mind working by myself. I consider myself a good listener, but from time to time I like to add something from myself.

If you would like me to come for an interview, I am available any time of the week. I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

XYZ

Sorry for the post being so overdue, I had it prepared as a MS Word file, but forgot to post it.

Would you consider going vegan?

I personally can't imagine myself going full vegan. The biggest disadvantage of the switch would be the constant need to be aware of what you're ordering when eating out. What's more, I dont have time to prepare proper, vitamin rich vegan meals. Places like the school cantine hardly ever offer a vegan menu, same goes for some hotels etc. When buying animal products I always look for the ones which caused the least harm to animals, however excluding meat from my diet, at least today, is something that I don't think would go well.

Would you like to spend a week in the Mandarin Oriental?

Definitely yes. It would be a nice adventure and a possibility to discover how the rich “exist”. Especially since the price of 600 £ is much less than I have expected. Spending a night or two wouldn’t result in going bankrupt for an everyday person. It might also just be a very good vacation. You don’t hava to worry about anything and there’s always someone to assist you. It might help you relieve stress and help you relax. I’m also very curious as to how good the food served in their restaurant really is.

Is it possible that we will stop being a throwaway society?

The possibility of us stopping being a throwaway society is usually met with doubts. I think that it is very unlikely. Even in the past, our ancestors would simply dump anything they no longer want or need. It is the same with animals. If no longer need something what’s the point in keeping it? The “art” of recycling has improved big time recently, allowing us to reuse even more resources. We won’t ever stop throwing things away. We can only try to throw away less.

Why do people believe in supernatural things like magic, astrology, ghosts if they have science?

I think that the main reason is the fact that we seek explanation for everything we don't understand. Even the slightest, stupidest thing. What is more, we like to believe that the world is not randomised based on our choices, but that there's something dictating the outcome. Back in the day people would come up with many things just to make their lives a little bit easier to comprehend the beliefs don’t tend to die out easily, so they were passed onto other generations, hence people in the modern world like to have their own understanding of some things.

Who or what is to blame for obesity in modern world?

To begin with, I think that the main thing to blame for it are our primitive instincts. This is the reason why we like sugar so much in the first place. However, the food companies started exploiting it, using sugar as a cheap additive used to increase the taste of the product, which will result in customers choosing that maker again, because of how nice it tasted and satisfied our brain. Still, we are also to blame. We get to choose what we eat and falling thousands of times for the same marketting trick each year, we are responsible for our bad diet habits. I don't mean that we should only buy special, expensive and eco-firendly products, but we should study the table of contents carefully and sometimes spend something extra if it is worth it.

Should people spend money on space exploration?

   In my opinion this is quite a tough one. I am not a scientist or a physicist of any kind, but I'll try to make my arguments sound good.
   To begin with, I consider space exploration something essential. We still don't know much about space. We've barely touched it. We don't know what lies ahead of us. We might find new life forms or a solution to the problems we have. We might find new useful minerals. What is more, by developing new space shuttles etc. aviation may benefit, which will result in better travel.
   To sum up, in my opinion we need to explore space even if it involves money and sacrifice, because it will help us achieve a nicer future.
