Dear Tony,

I (be) here for almost a week now. I still (decide) whether to take the job. I just can’t (make) a decision.
Do you remember Bill Hemsky? I (meet) him by chance two days ago. He was one of those tall, thin Americans I (know) when I (study) at Cambridge. (By the way, he (put) on a lot of weight since he came back here). Anyway, he is an analyst with one of the big Wall Street firms now. He thinks I should (take) the job, even if only for a year or so because it (be) excellent experience.
You told me before I (come) here that I shouldn’t let our relationship influence my decision.....
