While it isn’t immediately clear exactly who coined the term...

...Tourism Geography Tourism Geography is the study of travel and tourism, as an industry and as a social and cultural activity. Tourism geography covers a wide range of interests including the environmental impact of tourism, the geographies of tourism and leisure economies, answering tourism industry and management concerns and the sociology of tourism and locations of tourism. Tourism geography is that branch of science which deals with the study of travel and its impact on places. Geography is fundamental to the study of tourism, because tourism is geographical in nature. Tourism occurs in places, it involves movement and activities between places and it is an activity in which both place characteristics and personal self-identities are formed, through the relationships that are created among places, landscapes and people. Physical geography provides the essential background, against which tourism places are created and environmental impacts and concerns are major issues, that must be considered in managing the development of tourism places. The approaches to study will differ according to the varying concerns. Much tourism management literature remains quantitative in methodology and considers tourism as consisting of the places of tourist origin (or tourist generating areas), tourist destinations (or places of tourism supply) and the relationship (connections) between origin and destination places, which includes transportation routes, business...

...Construction Manager, Greenfield Community College Date: 3 August 2015 Ref: Change in location of Venting Apparatus Sir and/or Ma’am, Here at Easy to Be Green, we pride ourselves on being the leader in installing energy efficient heating, cooling, and insulation systems. And since these systems are custom designed to meet you, the customer’s request, it involves a variety of Sub-contractors. And with this in mind there are time limits as to when we can make changes in the design. This morning one of my sales team, Chris, came to me with this problem, and I am writing to you so I can explain the reason as to why we will be unable to change the location of the venting apparatus, that you have requested. I understand that you had written to Chris requesting this change to accommodate a change in the campus’s overall design plan. There are two reasons as to why this Change cannot be accomplished; 1. There is a zoning restriction on this kind of Vent. I do understand that it is not widely enforced, but I feel as one of the leaders in this industry that it would not be beneficial for us to disregard this restriction. 2. Your request has come in late and there is only 1 month left before installation of the vents. This late addition was quoted to add $5000 dollars to the price of the contract. It is not practical for us to deviate from the written agreement. And therefore there will be no added cost to this project. Let me say again, I truly understand that you as our customer...

...expectations for delivery and payment -- including any fees for late payment. The contract should be signed by both parties and dated. Having clients initial each paragraph after it is read can go a long way to proving they understood the payment terms, if a situation ever needs to be taken to court. Build relationships with your clients that make it difficult for them to ignore your requests for timely payment. Communicate often with a simple phone call or dropping by to see if their needs are being met. Develop friendships with the company's leadership. Hold events to reward your customers for being good clients. Offer incentives for paying early. Examples can include a discount of 2 to 3 percent if the bill is paid by the due date; free delivery on the next order; or free advertising on your website. Likewise, impose a penalty for late payments, such as fees or interest, which is clearly spelled out in the contract. Call the customer the day after payment is late to check on the status. Inquire as to when the payment will be mailed, or request drop-off delivery to ensure it is received on time. Ask about the state of your customer's business to find out if business has slowed or the customer is having financial problems. Refuse to do business with...

...team. I brought some fresh young air, but also new motivation with me. For this reason, I kindly request that you proceed with the raise of my payment as we already discussed. I appreciate your kind consideration of this request. Yours sincerely, Dominika Motylska. Requesting discount Dear Mrs. Zara, the day before yesterday I received the Shirt I ordered from your online store of Zara. As you can probably not well imagine, I discovered that the Shirt is a little bit damaged. Some stitching is not well processed and there is also a tiny whole on the left arm of the Shirt. In consequence, I request that the store Zara credit my account with 40% of the Shirt price to an amount of $12,50. I am familiar with the store Zara since three years already. While I have never received an inferior product before I am willing to accept the Shirt at a discount, rather than send it back for a full refund. Additionally, I am totally understanding that some mistakes in such huge production departments in companies of this size can happen. Nevertheless, I will return the Shirt for full credit plus shipping charges, if I receive no reply within two weeks. Thank you for your kind assistance. Yours sincerely, Dominika Motylska. Requesting information Dear Molly, I appreciate that you submitted your resume in response to the bartender job in my bar so quickly. I addition to your resume, we kindly request some more references I...

...flexible to changes. A change to a project this size involves coordination, planning and design re-valuation. We acknowledge your letter requesting a change in the location of the venting apparatus. However, according to our legal department, local zoning ordinances and regulations prohibit the change to that particular location. However, if you are able to change the location of the venting apparatus to stay within the zoning parameter guidelines, EBG is willing to go ahead with the change at no additional cost to you. I understand that this may require a re-evaluation on your part and we appreciate your consideration. We apologize that we are unable to honor your current request, and regret any inconvenience it may have on your project design and plans. But, if you decide to adjust your request within the approved zoning parameters, the change will be made and delivered on time. Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to a mutually beneficial relationship in the future. I am attaching the zoning parameters for your reference and will call you to discuss further how we can help you.

...TO: CEO Instructor 10/12/13 CC: FROM: SUBJECT: Request for Personnel Objective This report outlines the procedures for properly submitting a request of personnel and the effects of not have the proper staffing. This ranges from meeting customer demands, ensuring proper ordering of our products to prevent any unnecessary Not In Stock Items (NIS) and ensuring date rotation is done on a regular basis. Executive Summary Due to the sequestration the Commissary is extremely understaffed and is barely keeping up with the demands of the customers. This causes a problem with sales, replenishment and customer service. Without the proper manning the commissary is unable to perform its main goal to the fullest, which is providing a service to our soldiers and their family members. In order to get the Commissary back to a sufficient operational staff, we would need to hire three custodial workers, four cashiers, and two food service workers. My proposal to you would be to higher veteran’s and promote more fulltime positions. Justification: The Commissary is a vital asset here in Germany for our soldiers and their family members along with our civilian employees. The store gives them a taste of home in which they are away from. The staffing strength right now is just below 80 percent, with sequestration we are not allowed to go above 90 percent. With PCS’s happening we lost a lot of our...
