Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to you in connection with the misconduct of a newly joined team member, which is causing several problems for us. First of all, allow me to explain the issues he creates daily. Martin, a graphic designer who joined our firm

last

week, does smoke in a lunch area, which is strictly prohibited.

Although

he does

this

activity when no one is having lunch, the smoke there irritates me during my mealtime as I am allergic to cigarettes.

In addition

to

this

, he does not arrange chairs and wipe the table once he is done with his lunch;

therefore

, the next person who wants to use

this

facility has to do it forcefully. All staff members are suffering from his unprofessional behaviour;

hence

, we complained to our team leader who explained to him the rules and regulations but it seems that there has been no change in his behaviour so far. He is not cooperative at all, so working in a team has become impossible, particularly, when we are dependent on him for the design-related work. I would appreciate it if you could please take some strict action against him. You can try by providing a soft notice and monitoring his code of conduct for a few days. We would be grateful if you could help us in

this

regard. Thank you for your time and consideration. Yours faithfully, Sohel Khan
