Today is my last day of work, my boss is out of the office today, so I will have to ask her by email. What should the email say?

Something along the lines of
"I have enjoyed my experience here, thanks for helping me develop my skills, etc, yadda yadda. Since I have gotten such valuable experience here, I was hoping that you would be able to serve as a reference for my future endeavors"
This, of course, is very short-handed and undeveloped, but you get the idea.

You want to thank her for the time you've worked for her and ask for a letter detailing projects you've worked on, communication skills, awards and recognition etc. If you are using the letter for a specific request, be sure to list the things that the source is looking for. For example, I am beginning a Master's program and my principal (boss) has to tell what I teach and for how long I've been teaching it as well as that I am in good standing within the school and district. Good luck!

just as you said. just ask her for a letter of recommendation for your new job. your boss should know what to write in the letter. if you didn't get along w/ the boss then asking for a recommendation wouldn't be a good idea.

Ask your boss for the letter, but in doing so be sure to thank them. That you appreciate their time. Butter em up so to speak. Good kind asking will/may lead to a really good letter.
Good luck

DO NOT do it by email,,, it's too easy to ignore/put off/forget about,,, do it in person, that way the person will be less likely to include any negative comments. and be polite ;)

ask her for the letter of recommendation and let her know what you want it to say - make it easy for her

Take home a few pieces of stationery from the company, and write your own.
