请假怎么说出口？
工作中难免会遇见请假之类的个人小事，需要请示你的上司。那么这些应该如何来表达呢？又有哪些语言上的技巧呢？一般来说，这要看老板的慷慨程度以及你平时的工作表现而定。所以平时工作努力，偶尔的一次请假应该可以被批准的。当然在请假时需要注意你的语气，要委婉有礼貌，尽量用“could”，“would”，“Do you mind”这些词。记住：千万别忘了找出一些有创意的理由啊！Giving Reasons
请假事由
病假是永远不会过时的请假理由。“call in sick”是一个在办公室内常会用到的片语，指的是有人打电话来说他生病了不能来上班。那么，正常的病休要怎么讲呢? 那就是“sick leave”或者是“medical leave”。
例句：
Shelly just called in sick.
莎莉刚打电话来病休。
Some workers called in sick to have a strike.
有些工人集体打电话病休来罢工。
I need (a) sick leave for two days.
我需要请两天病假。
请休假一般用“take / have the day off”，如果是两天以上就用“days off”。比如，因为妻子要分娩了, 想要请产假，英语中专门有对应的“personal leave”。当然，请假归请假，至于扣不扣薪水 (paid / unpaid)？这就要看各公司的规定了。
例句：
Wouldn't it be possible for me to take the day off this Friday?
这个星期五，我是否可以休假一天？
I'm asking for a three-day paid/unpaid personal leave when my wife gives births.
因为我妻子要分娩, 我想要请三天假。
