/*Implement a class Address . An address has a house number, a street, an optional
apartment number, a city, a state, and a postal code. Supply two constructors: one
with an apartment number and one without. Supply a print method that prints the
address with the street on one line and the city, state, and zip code on the next line.
Supply a method public boolean comesBefore(Address other) that tests whether this
address comes before another when the addresses are compared by postal code.*/

   String street;

   int apartmentNumber;

   String city;

   String state;

   int postalCode;

   public Address(int houseNumber, String street, String city, String state, int postalCode) {

       this.houseNumber = houseNumber;

       this.street = street;

       this.city = city;

       this.state = state;

       this.postalCode = postalCode;

   }

   public Address(int houseNumber, String street, int apartmentNumber, String city, String state, int postalCode) {

       this(houseNumber, street, city, state, postalCode);

       this.apartmentNumber = apartmentNumber;

   }

   public void printAddress() {

       System.out.printf("Street: %s%n", this.street);

       System.out.printf("City: %s, State: %s, Postal Code: %d.%n", this.city, this.state, this.postalCode);

The few changes I made are in bold.

the benefits of raising bc’s minimum wage to $15 through a

series of pre-announced staged increases far outweigh the likely

costs. claims that such an increase will lead to massive job losses

in low-wage sectors of the economy are not credible.

• an increase to $15 would result in some job losses. however,

the likely impact is less than a 1 per cent reduction in the overall

provincial employment rate, and a 7.6 per cent reduction in the

employment rate for those currently making between $10.25

and $15 per hour.

• the large job loss impacts predicted by some opponents of

minimum wages misrepresent the existing economic research. in

reading and using that research, it is important to recognize that

estimates showing job loss effects of minimum wage increases

apply only to teenagers. estimated effects for young adult and

adult workers range from insignificant to non-existent.

• focusing on teenage workers plays up an inaccurate stereotype

about who earns very low wages in bc and leads to exaggerated

claims about job losses. only 26 per cent of those currently making

between $10.25 and $12 are teenagers, and only 5 per cent

of those making between $12 and $15 are teenagers.

i would first let him be aware that a cover letter is official and confidential and it requires a proper formatting so that the employer doesn't have hard time when going through it. he should write it in paragraphs of about two to four sentences and use proper grammar a , spelling and proper punctuation. i will also advice him not to be emotional and not also to use images.then base his attention to the details of the job described and not other things. that is he be specific to the responsibilities and to the employers requirements. on this he should make sure that the letter reflects how good he is for the requirements detailed by the employer

the letter should not be too long nor too short.
