Dear Sir or Madam

I am writing in relation with the previous e-mail and I want to show you my disagreement about the decrease of 10% of my working salary to take effect from next week.

I am sorry to inform you that we won’t be able to keep your £70/week salary due to recent financial problems. For this reason we have found ourselves forced to reduce it a 10%. We feel so sorry about it and will appreciate your comprehension.

Kind regards, Jane

I have been working with you for three weeks and I feel It is unacceptable to decrease my salary so soon after signing up. I think you should rethink the my salary decrease If I am not doing my job very well.

I would like to suggest several alternatives: 1. First of all, personally I believe that If you have to decrease my salary, you should reduce my working hours. 2. Secondly, If you do not want to reduce my working hours, I would love you to pay me monthly
