Purely Business

(the employee quietly enters the room wearing a beaming smile)

Excuse me Sir, Can I talk to you about something?
It's about work, and it will not take long.

Sir, you know that I have been working for this company for six months now. Although I am only working part time, still I have shown hard work and loyalty. There was never a task that you made me do that I haven't given my best, and I guess you bare witness to that. This place has helped me a lot in ways I couldn't even imagine. And I am really determined to contribute to this company, that I am willing to work overtime.

(pause)

I know you have a policy about promoting part time employees, and I greatly respect that. All I am asking is your kind consideration. Since I am working for my studies, I am asking for a fifty peso per hour raise and full health benefits. It will greatly help me and as well as my family. I hope that you will think about my proposal Sir. And thank you for lending your time .
