I thought it was funny but could never get away with using something like that at my org. I loved the “competent people who work for me” part – I make this joke all the time.

Eh, my team’s instruction to put them up if they’re going to be away from email/voicemail for more than an hour (standard lunch break). I have a ton of staff, and we’re in a business where a high degree of responsiveness, especially during the business day, is expected and few of my staff have mobile email.
