Dear Jason，
May I use your name as a reference for applicating an university I wish to study in? I am applying for MBA courses in Stanford University. Our experience together at JJT helped give me the confidence to try for these university.
Since I graduated with an Associate Degree in Risk Management last spring, I have taken several sources in industrial engineering. I am experienced with OSHA regulations and variety of plant operational systems.
Being both co-workers and friends for many years, I naturally thought of you as a reference. If you are comfortable with that idea, please return the encloses self-addressed stamped post-card to me stating your approval. I’d appreciate your help, of course, but also understand not wanting strangers calling any time wanting inside information about someone who out-fishes you on every camping trip. Yet,I know I could have a great progress with this university!
Thanks either way for being a friend—and the son of a heavy equipment company owner who hired a poor fisherman years back!
Sincerely yours,
Jack
