SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Mr Brown,
I am writing this letter to ask for your permission to take off from 1:00 to 5:00 pm tomorrow so that I can attend the celebration at my home.
Let me explain that I have to go to the engagement of my sister which is going to be held on tomorrow. Thus, I have to be there so that I can help my parents if they need any thing. I want to attend the whole celebration as it is the most important day of my sister’s life. She also want my presence in whole function.
As I know that we have an urgent meeting with foreign clients on the same day of engagement. I have made an arrangement for that already so that our company’s work would not suffer. In order to perfect presentation, I had made an audio-visual presentation which is going to play at the time of the meeting. In this way, I had managed the work in advance. The rest of things would be looked by Mr Steven.
Looking forward for your positive response.
Your’s Sincerely,
Ammy Sandhu
