Email 1

Hey Selma, 

Sorry! When you texted me, I was working and I didn't have time to answer. I had a long, busy week at school and Friday was crazy! One of my co-workers was sick so I had to do all of his work and mine too! Customers had to wait a long time for service and they were not happy. I wanted to come and meet you after work, but I was too tired, so I just wnet home went right to bed. When you called after 8:30, I was sleeping! Do you want to do something tonight?

Let me know!

Email 2

Prof. Burns,

This is Kevin Sullivan, from your Auto-shop class. I am terribly sorry, but I couldn't come to school on Friday morning. On Thursday night, my roommate became very sick with pains in his stomach. We didn't know what was wrong, so I drove him to the hospital. He was examined by a doctor, and he feels better now, but we were waiting for a long time and we only got home at 5:00am. I was very tired and I missed your class. I want to apologize. Is it possible for me to take the test on Monday?

Thank you for understanding
