Smith went to see his supervisor in the front office.
"Boss," he said, "we're doing some heavy house-cleaning at home tomorrow, and my wife needs me to help with the attic and the garage, moving and hauling stuff."
"We're short-handed, Smith," the boss replied. "I can't give you the day off."
"Thanks, boss," said Smith. "I knew I could count on you!"
史密斯去前台办公室见他的主管。
“老板，”他说，“我们家明天要大扫除，我妻子需要我帮忙清理阁楼和车库，搬搬挪挪东西。”
“史密斯，我们现在人手不足，”老板回答，“我不能准你明天的假。”
“谢谢老板，”史密斯说，“我就知道您靠得住！”
