生活中难免会出现意外事件。比如，你突然生病了，或者是发生重要事件，这些都可能让你没法工作，那就只好请假啦！如果领导你的是老外上司，那该如何写一个英文请假条呢？Don't worry! 看了下面的内容，你就知道怎么写啦！

首先，要在假条的上方写明假条是递给谁的

To：假条是递给谁的

From：请假人

Date：写假条的日期（注意可不是请假的日期，不要弄混了哦！）

Subject：写上请假字样

例如：

To: Peter Stone, Manager

From: Lynn Chen, Financial Department

Date: May 22nd, 2006

Subject: Casual Leave of Absence

其次，在假条的第一段，要开门见山但是有礼貌地提出请假，要写清你要请假的日期。

例如：

Peter, I would like to know if I could ask for a casual leave of absence for one day on May 24th, this Wednesday.

然后，在假条的第二段，你要简单明了地陈述请假的原因事由，并且要表达对此给工作带来不便的歉意。

例如：

This morning I received a telephone call from my dentist, urging me to come to his practice for immediate treatment of my teeth. I have been experiencing a stinging pain, depriving me of my sleep during the past fortnight. The situation could worsen, should infection occur.

Concerning my workload: As Wednesday is not as busy as the other weekdays, I think a one-day leave this Wednesday may be the best solution. I apologize for the inconvenience my absence from work may cause.

接着，在假条的最后一段，要写上你希望获得准假的请求，或者具体等候答复的时间。

例如：

Thanks. I will call you at 1:30p.m. Or you can call me at any time.

把以上几段综合起来，就是一则请假条。也没想像的那么难吧！
