Subject: Congratulations Jim!

Wow Jim that promotion sounds fantastic. We'll all miss you terribly if you decide to take it, but you and I both know it is a fantastic opportunity.

P.S. Have you talked to Pam about it yet? Maybe she has some insight ;)

Thanks again for the call on Friday morning. I just worry so much when people fly. I bet Australia is beautiful and you are enjoying a well-deserved break. I expect a postcard very soon!

-Phyllis

P.S. Pam showed up at my house on Thursday night. She called off the wedding. I'm sure she'd like to hear from her best friend. You should give her a call.

It seems to me that Stamford is much calmer than Scranton, I'm sure you're bored to tears. Well, this Karen sounds very nice Jim, I wish you luck.

Things here are the same as always, but not quite. It's very different without you here. Visit soon?

-Phyllis

P.S. She misses you. Call her please.

P.P.S. I would never lie to you...

Jim, it is none of my business I know, but I just can't keep my mouth shut any longer. I have known you for almost eight years now, and I feel I might be the only one you'll listen to.

I spent almost thirty years being unhappy. Searching for love and never finding it, but I didn't know that it was right across the hallway. I've never been more content in all my life and I only wish I'd known this joy sooner. You're too young to be so unhappy Jim.

I know she hurt you, but you're hurting her more. And if you love her like I know you do, you won't let this go on any longer.

-Phyllis

P.S. You won't regret it
