Dec 21, 2017 · If you haven't left the workplace yet for the holidays, here are some ideas for an efficient, effective, or funny out-of-office reply.
.
We are closed today for the [public holiday name]. Our office will re-open tomorrow at am.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought it was funny and not annoying! I’m with Alison that it’s probably just a little wordy, but there’s no problem with the humor.
Dear Customer, Thank you for your email, but our company is out of office, celebrating [HOLIDAY]. Unfortunately, it means we will not be able to send you any reply until [DATE]. We apologize for the delay but wish you a wonderful holiday season. Best regards.
I’m currently out of the office this week as I’ve taken some time off to travel. However, I’ll reach out to you when I’m back.

Here's an auto-reply I created for my support account having some fun. But also throwing out an extra lifeline on the off chance I'm eaten by a bear. If the boss doesn't notice I'm missing, surely people emailing me will, right?
I like funny OOO – but I am a bad offender regarding these and may slightly overshare. I recently had to be in and out for eye surgery and this was mine:
call center: A call center is a centralized department to which phone calls from current and potential customers are directed. Call centers can handle inbound and/or outbound calls , and be located either within a company or outsourced to another company that specializes in handling calls. Get the Cameo app to view the latest content, DM your idols, share your Cameos + more. Just like that. Holidays: Christmas. A 'Beary' Merry Christmas A Caroling We Go A Christmas To Remember A Holly Jolly Christmas A Season Of Love And Laughter All Hearts Come Home For Christmas All I Want For Christmas All Is Calm, All Is Bright All Wrapped Up Away In A Manger Baby's First Christmas Bah Humbug Believe In Miracles Believe In The Magic Of Christmas
I guess my first instinct might be thinking it’s rude but having seen it a few times I do get it. It really makes sense for people who get dozens or hundreds of emails a day and are gone for extended periods of time. It’s more courteous to be up front about it than silently delete like some people said they do (though I get they maybe just didn’t realize they’d need to do that).

Yeah, that’s not enough to stress over. Try coming back to tens of thousands after parental leave.
One nice compromise I’ve seen is that some people add upcoming PTO to their email signature for a week or two beforehand. That way the people you’re working with right then get a heads up without needing to spam everyone with the information.
When you’re out for the holidays, how can you express your thrill for the season without sounding, well, cheesy?
I’d side-eye if an OOO for a couple of days off said that, unless someone was in an unusually time-sensitive role. But if someone’s out for long enough that there’s an alternate contact provided, that’s long enough for them not to be wading through missed emails when they get back.
