[speaker001:] do you have a minute?
[speaker002:] sure, what would you like to discuss?
[speaker001:] I've made a tough decision, sir. Here's my resignation.
[speaker002:] well, I have to tell you that I'm quite surprised. Is there any possible way to change your mind?
[speaker001:] I'm afraid not, sir. I've made up my mind. It's something I have to do.
[speaker002:] can I ask why? Were you unhappy working for us?
[speaker001:] oh, no. not at all.
[speaker002:] are you planning on studying abroad?
[speaker001:] no, sir.
[speaker002:] have you been given a better offer?
[speaker001:] Oh, no. I would never look for another job while working here. I think this is a fantastic place to work.
[speaker002:] well, what's the problem then?
[speaker001:] it's my mother. She's sick and needs someone to take care of her. I'm the only one who can do it.
[speaker002:] I'm sorry to hear that, but you don't need to quit over that. Why don't you just take a leave of absence? We can hold your job for you until your mother gets better.
[speaker001:] really? I didn't know that would be possible.
[speaker002:] sure, we'd be carry to lose a good worker like you.
[speaker001:] thanks, sir.
