To: Jeffrey [email protected] From: John C Sent Fri 7/4/2014 10:38:21 PM Subject: Re: only to you The trampoline is entirely my fault. Yes, I am ultimately responsible for every item on the island, so no excuse for that one... Monday I will sit down with Carlos and ask him if he wants to be treated like a responsible employee or a dumb worker who needs to be led to each project I want done. I also have to learn who is capable of doing what they are told and who just ignores it because of their seniority and place on the pecking order. Two things arc working against me, but I can deal with that. I. The staff hates that there is supervision. It was nicer for them with only Ana because they could just coast along. 2. I've heard more than once that " There has been so many in my role and they don't last, so don't be offended if we wait and see" Anyway. I will be more diligent about tasks being completed and that your living areas takes first priority at all times. I want to make this work.

I have been to the Kite house and complained about the sad state ofit. Ana told me you were aware that we arc waiting for new windows. I will be extra diligent about things when I return. Be assured of that.

Im told that you have been held in bvi , is it true? On Fri, Jul 4, 2014 at 5:34 PM, John C wrote: Jeffrey, I am very sorry about this. If I may explain what it is that I am doing, then hopefully we can fix this situation. When I came to the island I saw one major problem. Landscaping was running from area to area and putting out fires, as directed by Ana. It was one problem area after the other. So, I decided to split up the island so Ana took care of the homes, and I would get landscaping in shape. Irrigation is lacking, and as you can see when you look at the basket, and areas surrounding it... It looks much better now that irrigation is working. I wanted to get all open projects done and get the crew into maintenance mode. As you can see, the engineering area is no longer a junk yard, next week the tunnel will be organized with racks and all workshops clean and neat. Infrastructure is paramount in my experience. When all is clean and neat, it is easier to maintain it that way. EFTA_R1_00357148 EFTA01917100 I know this makes me a construction manager, but that is what I deemed the most important initial role in order to get 5 star service. Regarding the tennis court, I was told that as long as it was ready by early September, it was all good. So, that is why you have not seen full action this past week up there. Other projects were demanding the full staff. I will get on the court next week and get it done. The kite house. No excuse there. It's a mess, and Ana had told me that we are waiting for windows and you knew about that. Trampoline is filthy. Absolutely agree. I've asked Carlos to clean it 3 times and I will have to be more firm with him. Let me get the things sorted out and then be more active in supervising Ana in her tasks as well. I must say that compared to other homes I've managed over the years, cleanW►ess is pretty good at LSJ. So, that's why I felt that I could concentrate on landscaping for a while. It takes a little time to learn the ins and outs of a new place. What I'm learning here is that it's not enough to tell people what to do. I will be done with landscaping next week and will at the same time get more involved with the remaining areas of LSJ Sorry about the long email...

I am very dismayed . The island is not five star - it is not two star. . 1 the swimming dock is recently spintered and a hazard, with a fishing pole laying a on it. the trampoline is so filthy to make it totally unusable. the kite house , obviously you have never been in, ( not sure how this is possible ) as every door is broken inoperable and glass cracked for over a month.art work laying on the floor - the cabanas also have art work laying on the floor. the list EFTA_R1_00357149 EFTA01917101  of the very few things that i emailed you have not been done. My prioirties are paramount , not anna chirs or yours. chris and crew arc planting autographs where the fruit trees are to go . and spending money on irrigation . instead of dealing with my master bed area which I have pointed out three times already, or covering the large cement casing at the MAIN HOUSE - the Tennis court is filthy, doors unable to close as I had to rig the pipe , already rusting, though i told danny twice and you in person. the tennis net had come off so i had to lace back up. ( not well either ). the ball machine cover was off and filthy, ties laying all over the place. danny told you that someone was to make a new door closer. the kitchen refrig , was filled with half open fruits , old lettuce, I had to clean up the mess myself. . please note The information contained in this communication is confidential, may be attorney-client privileged, may constitute inside information, and is intended only for the use of the addressee.
