That’s also annoying because if it’s not someone I interact with regularly I will wonder if it’s been left on by accident.
But I’ve also seen this tactic used for a week’s vacation, which seems… aggressive.

My OOO auto reply is fairly detailed. I have links to information for products I work with, an alternate point of contact for people to approach, etc. It’s really a CYA thing. What irks me about some OOO auto replies is when the person who is out has an alternate point of contact who is also out. Both are obvious planned absences, and both people are on the same team. Don’t they talk to one another about vacation??
Q. If there’s a snowstorm during winter break, will sidewalks and parking lots be cleared?
I’ll add “with limited access to email and voicemail” if I’m out because of work-related stuff (back when we used to have offsite meetings!), and “with no access to email and voicemail” if I’m truly on PTO.
Though you were ending with a “for everything else, there’s Mastercard” for a moment!
If you set up a vacation reply but people say they are not getting the reply, it could be one of the following:
1. Out of Office and Limited Access to Email Example. [Greeting] Thank you for your email message. I am going to be out of the office and will be back at (Date of Your Return).

I definitely hate the overshares. And I have one coworker whose rigidly precise & formal language comes off as pretentious and condescending. She sets up an out of office every time she leaves slightly early, so I get them A LOT.
