You recently received a letter from a friend asking for advice about whether to go to college or to try to get a job. You think he/she should get a job. Write a letter to this friend. In your letter: say why he/she would not enjoy going to college explain why getting a job is a good idea for him/her suggest types of job that would be suitable for him/her

Dear Saman, I hope

this

letter finds you good. I am writing

this

letter as a reply to your

last

letter, in that you have mentioned that you are seeking some advice to choose between college and a job. In my opinion, I want to tell you that you should go with the job option since there will be a huge amount of payments to be done if you select the college option. As far as I know, your family is currently struggling with some debts as well as your father's health condition. So, if you continue with your academics it will be a burden for them as well. While being a degree holder in IT Systems, I am sure can apply for the vacancies of System Administrator.

In addition

, if share your CV with me, I can see what I can do for you to get a good job.

Moreover

, if you are lucky to get a good offer with a decent salary, it will help you to continue your studies without any interruption. Let me finish here. If you need anything else, please feel free to contact me. Thank you, Supun
