常用应急场景


范例一:Mother’s wedding


I would like to ask for one day off next week.


Do you think the manager will agree?


I know it is the busy time for our company, but I do have some important things to handle.


Well, it is hard to say. At least you need to come up with a good reason.


Actually, it is my mother’s wedding. My parents divorced 1 many years ago. Now she is ready to establish a new family. It is a special occasion 2. I’ve got to be there, right?


Yes, you should be there. Go find the manager and ask. I think the manager will understand and approve you a day off. Don’t forget to fill in the leave application form. It will be signed by the manager for approval 3.


Thank you so much.


范例二:Headache is killing 4 me


Can I ask for leave this afternoon?


What is the problem?


I had a headache this morning. I didn’t pay attention to it. I thought probably it is because I didn’t sleep well. But now it is getting worse and worse. I feel quite dizzy 5 now and my eyes are somehow very light-sensitive. Maybe it is the migrated 6.


It is ok. You look really pale and red eyes. I suggest you go home immediately and have a good rest.


Thank you very much. I am sure good rest will do indeed. I don’t have this too often.


范例三:A note from the doctor


Listen, you can not afford another day off. You’ve called in sick five times in the last three weeks.


I know, but I am really sick.


Well. I want a note from the doctor this one and to be honest, if it continues, we may not be able to have you here.


I understand, sir. I’ll bring a doctor’s note in tomorrow. I am sorry, Mr. Thomas
