Boss:Daniel speaking. How may I help you?

Julie:I am feeling quite ill today.

Boss:I'm sorry to hear that. What's wrong?

Julie:I think I'm coming down with the flu. I have a headache, a sore throat, a running nose, and I'm feeling slightly feverish.

Boss:Your calling in sick

Julie:Yes, I was hoping to take the day off to recover.

Boss:Try and get some rest.
