Dear Ms. Woodward:
The Springfield Consumers' Association recently received numerous complaints about food safety at Elroy's Burgers' Johnson Street outlet. Individual diners reported several incidents of possible food poisoning after eating at this location last week. We recommend that you investigate these claims in a prompt and efficient manner.
Because this is the first time Elroy's Burgers has been implicated in a food safety problem, we have decided to issue you a warning. However, if there is a recurrence of this incident, we will contact the Regional Health Board immediately and inform them of our concerns.
Betty Windsor Chairperson, Toronto Consumers' Association
Toronto Consumers' Association 112 Millhouse Lane, Springfield, Toronto June 10, 2008 Dear Ms. Windsor:
We would like to thank you for your concern about the recent food safety issues at Elroy's, and for the appropriate way in which you handled the situation. We are pleased that you exercised good judgment by not involving the health board in this issue.
Of course, the food poisoning incident in question was very unfortunate, and we have generously compensated the customers who were affected. Customer's health is our primary concern, so we can assure you that this was a oneoff incident.
We conducted an investigation into the problem and established that it was a case of employee error. On Tuesday, June 1, the workers in the distribution warehouse were negligent, leaving two boxes of beef out of the refrigerator for too long. This meat was then distributed to Elroy's Burgers on Johnson Street, where the customers were affected.
We are taking action to make sure this type of error is never repeated. From now on, we will monitor all our ingredients from the supplier's processing plant through to the restaurant, ensuring that it remains refrigerated and fresh at all times. We will also introduce our own new food safety inspections which will be implemented in all our outlets across the country.
We are fully committed to providing our customers with delicious, fresh, healthy and safe food. With our new policies in operation, our customers and the Consumers' Association should have no more cause for concern.
Suzanne Woodward Head of Public Relations, Elroy's Burgers

A : 대학교 때 자주 갔던 그 까페 이름이 뭐였지? B로 시작했는데. What was the name of that cafe we used to go to in college? It started with a B.
B : 아, 거기. 음악이 끝내줬는데. Ah, that place. They had some great music.
A : 이름 기억나니? 오래돼서 기억이 가물가물하네. Do you remember the name of it? It's been so long that I can barely remember.
동거
한국에도 혼전 동거하는 사람들이 훨씬 많아진 것 같아요. There seem to be a lot more people in Korea living together before they get married.
네, 얼마 전까지만 해도 생각지도 못하던 일이었죠. Yes, it was unthinkable until not too long ago.
동거가 꼭 나쁘다고 만 할 수는 없지 않나요? Living together isn't all that bad, is it?
