A shy mailroom clerk's life is sent plunging into the deep end when she rescues an abandoned love letter from a Navy sailor from the trash can of a mean female executive... and decides to reply. Inter-office cat-fighting, deception, and romance ensue in this entertaining comedy about the distance between the life you have and the life you want.
