Welcome to my blog. Here, I will teach you how to reply a query or respond to a query or better still, answer a query in your office. I have written down a short sample of a reply for a query for lateness. Replying any type of query is very simple but first of all, you have to understand the nature of query given to you by your boss in your office. there are different types of query, viz.... Query for lateness, negligence of duty, absence from office, incompetence, etc. Here is the sample i wrote down. You can learn from it and use it as a sample.

Sir,
RE: QUERY
ON LATE COMING TO WORK
May I, refer to the
query served against me today the 11th day of August 2014,
And state as follows:
That the time i came
to work was 9:35am not 10:20am as written in the query. In avoidance of doubt ,
you may wish to inquire from the project driver Mrs. Victoria Francis Green (this is a sample) and
the Security Officer both of them saw me when i came to office this morning.
you may recall, that
at about 10am when you requested for my presence in your office that I, had
entered and printed 18 payment vouchers on Flexible Accounting, this are facts
and verifiable.
Recall also my wife
present ill heath which i had pleaded before now for your permission to be
taken her to hospital for medical check up every morning.
Prayer:
It is on the above
background that i, humbly request the Project Coordinator to dismiss the charge
against me and exonerate me from any disciplinary action.
Humbly submitted for
your kind consideration.
Your faithfully
