by Program Management and commercial business practices. This position

defense industry.

and implemented, from Greenfield and a zero base, the major multi-million

dollar subsidiary that handled the complete after sales and product support

required for both commercial and military clients. This new Maintenance

Transport Aircraft, thousands of skilled personnel and hundreds of millions

of dollars in assets and working capital with what was then the Largest

Airline in the free world, United Air Lines.

Rising to the senior Director level of United Air Lines Maintenance

Operations Center (MOC), he was responsible for the Maintenance, Repair and

Overhaul of United's jet Aircraft Engines, APU's and Components. Mr.

to take from approximately 8 Million in sales annually to approximately 150

Million in sales annually

THIS COVER LETTER AND THE OTHER 2 RESUME'S ARE FOR THE ESTATE HOUSEHOLD

MANAGERS (HOUSEMAN/HOUSEWOMAN) OPENING AT LA JOLLA, CALIF. POSTED BY

"INDEED" JOB #51597. I WAS NOTIFIED TO GO TO RESUMEBOOK360 AND APPLY.

COVER LETTER

9/12/2010

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Owner:

My wife and I are in receipt of your "Search" for an experienced, highly

competent and detail oriented, "Estate Domestic Couple" to manage your

estate in La Jolla California. We would like you to consider that we are

the Estate Household Managers (Houseman and Housewomen) that you are

seeking.

Please see included in this communication, both of our Management Profiles.

These profiles were developed for Aviation & Aerospace Management as a

business BIO, to be given to perspective clients, as a way to introduce the

Management of the company. I felt it important that you should know of our

business management background as it should give you a good idea of our

management acumen as we work with you, your family, your guests, your home

and all of your property that would be entrusted in us. It is important to

us that you understand that we truly realize the significant level of

reliance and trust that both of you must place in those individuals that

you hire as estate managers (a houseman and a housewoman).

Profiles and resumes' are not structured to give notice to working two

jobs when you first start out on your career. The second job is always

overlooked and credence is only given to the primary job. I started my

aviation career working for United Air Lines and I worked a second Job

managing the "Mary Avenue Apartments"( an upscale, 120 Apartment, Complex

located in Sunnyvale, California) for 7 years. Trisha took care of the

office requirements and I took care of all of the interior and exterior

maintenance, which included plumbing, electrical, heating, Air

conditioning, lighting, landscape grooming, vendor interface, pool and gym

servicing requirements and other duties as required. Both Trisha and I

developed a very effective "schedule of required activities" and we

learned, very quickly, how to be a very effective property management team.

When we bought our first home, my "handyman" experience "came home to

roost", as I was able to fix almost everything and needed very few outside

contractors . This "handyman" ability continues on to today.

In 1986 we purchased a 3 acre plot of land in Concord, Massachusetts and

had a 11,000 sq. ft home(we called it "TARA" as it had the appearance of

the "gone with the wind home") constructed on the property. We had an

extra large back patio, large pool, Tennis court, fully equipped gym, sauna

cottage, pool house and in the rear area of the property we had a large

heated green house (for our winter plantings) and outside space for a nice

automated spring, summer and fall garden. Our total property was designed

and landscaped with trails leading to each activity. It was a beautiful

place to raise our children and to entertain clients, guests and close

friends. Trisha served as homemaker, housekeeper, mother, wife, friend &

informal hostess and formal hostess (when we entertained people of

distinction, International or National, or when we just wanted a formal

dinner to celebrate a family member or friend). Our home was always spic

and span clean, organized (not to a fault, just efficient) and child,

school age friendly.

We lived in Concord for approximately 12 years before moving to Florida.

We hosted many committee meeting and many other causes at our home with

attendance from 8 to approximately 125 people. All meetings, gatherings,

entertainment, formal and informal luncheons and Dinners were a success as

we looked forward to inviting clients, friends and associates to our home.

Having chosen (years ago), "Aviation" as a career field and Having suffered

through the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the resultant down turn in Aviation

which lasted 5 years, we moved to Palm Beach Gardens into a rental. We

planned to stay in a rental for 1 year before buying.

We are now going into the end of the 5th year renting and the economy still

hasn't rebounded. We therefore closed our company in July and have just

made a decision to offer our personal services to "Estate Management".

Trisha found your advertisement for an Estate Household Manager

(Houseman/Housewoman) this last weekend and we feel very strongly that we

meet your expectations. We agree with your "Objective" and could not have

written it any better or more precise. We lived in California for many

years and know very well that La-Jolla, is a beautiful place to live. Your

list of "qualifications and character" requirements are well thought out

and very acceptable. We also agree with "Couple's Responsibilities: (

Both, Him and Her). You have scoped your expectations exceptionally well

and it reads like it is a product of many family meetings with input from

everyone: Father, Mother, Children and Office team. Trisha and I both

agree, 100 % with each and every line item.

We are very interested in meeting you and discussing any other item of

interest that you may have. We look forward to the scheduling of a

personal interview.

"People are not the best because they work hard. They work hard because

they are the best".

Sincerely,

Trisha and John Shaffer, Phone # 407-***-****
