Dear Esteemed Customer Letters, Volume One

This is a book of deliberate lies. The letters alleged by the title to be from various companies, businesses, professionals, or government agencies are fakes, each and every one.

They are intended to evoke laughs even as they might make you pay closer attention to the wording in routine communications. None is intended to be a veiled reference to any actual company, business, professional, or government agency or communication. Enjoy them if you have the stomach for bureaucratic prattle, overtly snide put-downs, and general silliness but don't look for or strain to find hidden meanings in them.
