    Dear Mr & Mrs Gates,

    Please find enclosed this term’s school report for your son, Mike Rosoft. Please acknowledge that you have received and understood the contents by returning the attached Google Form.

    Sincerely,

    FORM TEACHER:
    Mike has had a reasonably good term and has certainly matured since all he did was play Solitaire all day. His work rate has significantly increased to a point where his teachers no longer want to kill him. He does have some significant megalomaniac tendencies, however.

    We are still concerned about his timekeeping. His mobile homework was due in several months ago and hasn’t arrived yet.
