A Request to the Bank | 如是请求

English Original

I had fallen and dislocated my elbow, which made writing checks for my small business nearly impossible. I called my bank to explain that the signature on my checks would look odd due to my accident, and would they please honor them anyway.

"Okay," said the woman on the phone, "but you'll have to write a letter to the bank telling them that you are requesting this."


中文翻译

我摔了一跤,肘关节脱臼了,这让我几乎无法为我的小生意签写支票。我打电话给银行解释说,由于这次意外,我支票上的签名会显得很奇怪,并请求他们无论如何予以承兑。

“好的,”电话那头的女士说,“但你必须给银行写一封信,说明你正在提出此项请求。”
