M: can I ask why? Were you unhappy working for us?

A: oh, no. not at all.

M: are you planning on studying abroad?

A: no, sir.

M: have you been given a better offer?

A: Oh, no. I would never look for another job while working here. I think this is a fantastic place to work.

M: well, what's the problem then?

A: it's my mother. She's sick and needs soemone to take care of her. I'm the only one who can do it.

M: I'm sorry to hear that, but you don't need to quit 3 over that. Why don't you just take a leave of absence 4? We can hold your job for you until your mother gets better.

A: really? I didn't know that would be possible.

M: sure, we'd be carzy to lose a good worker like you.

A: thanks, sir.

你有时间吗?

当然,你想谈什么?

我下定决心了,.先生.这是我的辞职信.

嗯,我得告诉你我很意外.有什么办法让你改变主意吗?

我想恐怕没有,先生.我已经打定主意了.我必须得这么做.

我能知道原因吗?你在我们这里工作的不愉快?

哦,不.根本没有这么回事.

你想出国读书?

不是,先生.

你有更好的选择?

哦,不是.我在这里工作期间从来没有找到其它工作.我觉得这里工作非常好.

嗯,那到底是什么原因?

是我母亲的原因.她病了,需要有个人来照顾.我是唯一能去照顾她的人.

我很遗憾,不过你不用因为这个辞职,你为什么不请假呢?我们可以为你保留职位,等到你母亲康复后你可以回来复职.

真的可以吗?我不知道可以这样.

当然行,我们要是失去你这么优秀的员工会发狂的.

谢谢您,先生.
