Dear Ms. Synder,

I am writing in regard to ask for permission take some time off of work to go on a family holiday.

First of all, I would like to ask for some time off of work this Thursday to next Tuesday because of a family holiday that I have to attend since it will be the last holiday with my little brother who will be studying abroad for the next month until the next 4 years, so it is a really important holiday for me and my family.

Since I will be unable to attend our very important meeting with the client that will be held on this Friday, for that i already prepared the meetings PowerPoints and the financial report that I have been completed last week to make up my absence. I sincerely apologize for not being able to attend work and also the essential meeting this week.

Thank you for understanding.

Sincerely,

Mikayla
