Joan:I'm going to ask for my annual leave soon .
Tim:Oh, really ?What plans do you have ?
Joan:None,really ,but I could really use some time off .I think I might use the time to get caught up on some reading ,clean house ,and maybe go visit some friends I haven't seen in a long time .
Tim:That sounds really nice .Make sure to ask soon though .It's a popular time to travel and if you don't get in early ,they might not approve the time off .
Joan:That's true. I will tell the boss today after lunch .Hopefully it's early enough that it won't be a problem .
Tim:I think that's a good idea .I may ask for my leave after you get back.
