16) I am currently out of the office and probably out-of-my-mind drunk. Enjoy your workweek.
An out of office message is a compact text that conveys the most important facts:
.
In case of emergency, you can contact me on my cell phone, where I will answer as soon as possible.
That sounds like she’s using an auto-responder, not an Out of Office. The primary difference, as far as I can tell, is that an auto-response will respond to every email, whereas the OOO message will only reply once per sender when it’s turned on. (Turning it off and then back on resets it)
Oh hey, It’s Christmas, what are you doing emailing me? I’m extremely busy watching Home Alone, Die Hard, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Christmas Special on repeat until the new year. I might stop for food and toilet breaks, I also might now. Regardless of my general health and hygiene over the silly season, I’ll be back in office on January nd. Catch ya then, don’t forget to buy a pepperoni pizza for Splinter.

So many people emailed Ryan that Aviation Gin's servers crashed. Here's his July 2018 out of office message:
Then, all that’s left to do is turn it on before you abandon your desk, and get prepared for a relaxing holiday break—without feeling the need to be constantly tethered to your inbox.
Duh. We're in the travel industry. Of course, an out of office message involving dolphin-speak would be at the top of our list! Who doesn't love a dolphin?
The announcement of holidays to the employees should be done in a professional and formal way.

The other way is to write the letter and send it to each employee individually.
My outgoing voicemail message says “Please don’t leave me a voicemail, send me an email instead”
But nope, we’ve created a world where “I have a dentist appointment and won’t be in until 10 today” is cause for alarm.
