Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing this letter to take 5 days leave from the work because I am to go on friends’ marriage. I am working in IT department as a team member with ID number 8055.

I will be taking off from 20th October to 25th October 2024. I’ve already well planned to visit on this marriage which is going to happen in Winnipeg, Manitoba. We are close friends since 5-6 years and we were planning to celebrate from last 6 months. Finally, day came & I will be back to work right away on 26th October in the morning time.

However, to catch up my pending work, I am happy to work overtime and even on weekends. I won’t give a chance of complaint to the company.

Kind Regards,

Akshay Kumar
