This is one reason I rarely give a contact person. My company is terrible at communication, and not only could you easily be sent on a OOO chain, you could also be emailing someone who is out who didnât even use OOO.
âFor example, if a hacker knows that the chief financial officer of a company is OOO, thanks to the information in the auto-reply message, an attacker could impersonate the CFO on email and target another individual in the companyâs finance team asking them to make a payment or update bank details for them while they are offline,â says Sadler.

Apparently itâs a thing where people say in their out of office that they do not intend to read any emails that came in when they were out and your email will be deleted. If you still need assistance you need to resend your email after the personâs return date. While I get it, Iâve been in those positions where you get over 100 emails a day and if you are going to be out and unplugged for a week or more, trying to wade through all the junk and find the stuff that actually needs your attention, I do find thisâŠrude? I donât know the word I would use, but I have a negative reaction to it.
Of course, managing a minute and a half response time isnât so easily accomplished when youâre out of office, receiving hundreds of texts each hour, or shifting your attention to a different project.
I donât think itâs rude to do the deletion, but itâs pretty rude to not give some sort of Plan B besides âWait until I decide I am ready to deal with you.â Iâm sure it feels lovely to set up if youâve usually got a lot of annoying people clamoring for your time on matters that arenât nearly as urgent as they think, but to not even offer a âin case this is urgent, contact Xâ fig leaf just shows you donât care.

This is the perfect out of office for anyone who just LOVES Christmas. As in, the sort of person who does all their Christmas shopping in September, wears Christmas-related apparel all November and December, and probably single-handedly organised the entire office Christmas party.
