Dear Sir or Madam,
Model Answer:
Dear Sir or Madam,
First of all, I would like to thank you for hiring me to work with your company as a part-time Brand Ambassador. But, things do not really seem to be going on the right track, as far as my job is concerned, and that is exactly why I have decided to write this letter to you.
I joined your company about a few weeks ago because I thought that it would help me launch my career as a Marketing Manager, immediately after finishing in this role. But, unfortunately, after getting hired, instead of encouraging me to work on expanding the market for the products of our company, I have actually been working on preparing some accounting excel sheets. Well, I do not really mind working on preparing some excel sheets once in a while, but when it almost becomes a regular and only thing, it is a bit problematic, to say the least.
So, in light of this problem, I would really appreciate it if you could please instruct the concerned authority at your company so that I can carry on with the role for which I was initially hired.
Yours faithfully,
Fleming Alexander
