His working hours are between 8.30 am and 7.00 pm. Hashim is planning to travel abroad to visit his family this weekend. He finds very affordable flight tickets with a departure scheduled for Thursday, at 3 o'clock. Hashim would like to buy these tickets to save some money but he has a problem. He is working on Thursday and by the company's rules he cannot leave the office before 7pm unless it is an urgent/unexpected matter. Hashim can ask for a leave for a half of day, however he prefers to use the right for leave in another day.
