315 Today, I'm working on a big project at work.
316 I have to make it a success.
317 Every night I have to work overtime.
318 I usually work about 20 hours a day.
319 I sometimes even sleep at the office.
320 I really want to succeed, so I don't mind so much.
321 But now everything has changed.
322 Last night I got home late.
323 I tried to turn on the lights, but the power had been turned off.
324 It was because I hadn't paid the electric bill.
325 I'm single and live alone.
326 So I have to pay the bills myself.
327 But I haven't had any time to pay the bills.
328 It was really cold and I thought I would freeze to death.
329 I think I caught a cold.
330 I have a temperature and I feel horrible.
331 今朝 so I could go pay the bills 料金を支払って go to the hospital 病院に行けるように for two or three hours off 2,3 時間の休みを asked my boss ボスに頼んだの。
332 And he told me that I was just being lazy.
333 And then I told him about my power being turned off and he said, "That's not my problem."
334 My boss was really mean to me.
335 I couldn't believe what he said.
336 Well, I returned to my desk and I wrote my resignation.
337 When I gave it to my boss, his attitude suddenly changed.
338 He got so nice and he tried to get me to stay.
339 He said this to me.
340 If you quit, this project will fail.
341 I just smiled and said this.
342 That's not my problem.
