Model Answer
excuse me sir, do you have a quick moment? i want you to talk to you about our current laboratory sessions. since the two classes were combined due to the staff shortage, the lab has become heavily overcrowded. it's making it really difficult for us to access the necessary equipment, which is starting to fall behind our learning schedule. more importantly, with so many people in this space, i am concerned it's becoming a safety hazard. could we look into alternative solutions like adjusting the session timing or capping the room capacity. thank you.
