Dear Sir,
I am writing
this
letter to request 2 days leave that I need to attend a family function. Actually, it is my brother's marriage that will take place on the 20th of July, and we have a reception planned for the following day.
Please allow me to explain to you the reasons why I need 2 days' holiday. Firstly
, he is my younger brother, and I will be the sole responsible for all the preparations for his marriage. Secondly
, I need to assist my mother in sweets distribution as well, which she won't be able to do alone.
In order to manage my assigned work during my absence, I have already finished a knowledge transfer session with Steve, who will be my replacement. Also
, I have prepared a detailed document that consists of all the essential details that Steve may need.
Once again, I would be grateful if you could approve my time off request.
Regards,
JohnSubmitted by kkhurana.vibhu on
