To Whom It May Concern:
I am looking for a Full-Time Security Job in the
Loveland, Colorado, area that will offer me additional
experience, a challenge, and leadership opportunities.
I would really prefer 'Day-Shift with Weekends Off'.
The reason that I moved to the Loveland area was to be
able to spend time with my only brother. He has MAJOR
MEDICAL PROBLEMS and will have to undergo Open Heart
Surgery one day.
I have no idea what your company’s ‘Dress Code and
Grooming Guidelines are. I would like you to know that
I have not shaved for over 30 years. I keep my full
beard trimmed to an overall length of .47 of an inch
and well groomed. If my beard is not within company
guidelines then; you are as likely to change those
guidelines as I am to start shaving again.
Other than that; I am certain that I would prove to be
a valuable asset to your company; if given the
opportunity.
I have taken the liberty of attaching a copy of my
RESUME.
Thank You for Your Time and Attention to This Matter.
Sincerely,
Terry Finch
