Hi Joe,

I'm pretty excited, for tomorrow I'm going to see if I can be employed. The employment office sent me a referral card to work in the attorney's office as a clerk typist. I hope I'll be hired! Wish me luck, okay?

Adios,

Mas

P.S. I'm sure curious to know when the Affoulters are getting out!
