Meth = DEATH!
Sooner or later, “methamphetamine means death:” The death that comes from violence or critical illness, the death of future promise for too many young people, and the death of hope for their families. Methamphetamine carries a prognosis that is worse than many cancers. Sometimes, if things go well, I can give them back their lives, but who is going to give them back their futures? I am at the end of the pipeline, and I struggle to prevent those final effects.
We have to remember those human faces behind the statistics. When we work to put together a comprehensive strategy that is measured by the number of arrests, interdictions or labs seized, we should also measure the number of lives saved and the number of people whose futures are restored.

Use the referral format to contact employers to whom you’ve been referred. The effective job seeker will receive referrals to many job opportunities through networking and informational interviews. The referral may be to a specific job opening (advertised or unadvertised) or to an employer who may not be hiring. In a cover letter the individual who provided the referral is mentioned in the letter.

And in some companies, if a cover letter is not formatted for computer scanning, it may never reach a human reviewer.

Whatever format you use, be sure the letter conforms to acceptable standards for business letters.
