Giving Someone Your Recommendation
Jimmy: My cousin Sal said that he put in an application for a job here.
Suzanne: Yeah, that’s right.
Jimmy: Well?
Suzanne: Well, what?
Jimmy: Are you going to hire him?
Suzanne: I’m not sure. He doesn’t have any experience and he didn’t provide any references.
Jimmy: I can vouch 1 for him. Sal is solid. He’s a really nice guy.
Suzanne: I appreciate you putting in a good word for him, but I need more assurance than that he’s a nice guy. He needs to have the temperament 2, work ethic 3, and skills for this job.
Jimmy: What he doesn’t know he’ll learn on the job. He’s a quick study.
Suzanne: How can I justify 4 hiring someone with no experience, while passing up applicants 5 who are better qualified 6?
Jimmy: He has my ringing endorsement 7. What else do you need? He’ll work as hard as I do.
Suzanne: That’s exactly what I’m afraid of.
