My new job provided a template OOO as part of the onboarding brand templates package! I’m sure it might seem like overkill to some, but I’ve had tons of nervous first-job employees ask me what theirs should say, so I loved that they just gave a sample to go from. Also goes a long way in communicating that unique office culture stuff that is usually unspoken/not formalized.
Here are some suggestions for what you should always include in your auto-reply emails when you are out of the office:
.
1.) Добро пожаловать в «Вася Пупкин и Ко». Наша телефонная горячая линия не работает во время праздников. Наш график работы можно найти на нашем сайте www.joendoe.de – Благодарим вас за оказанное доверие. Желаем вам и вашим близким приятных праздников и счастливого Нового года.
The auto-reply will stop on the date you set for it to stop. If you did not set a start and end date, it may be using a date that is already past. Check this in Gear Icon>Automatic Replies>End Time.
Yeah I think it’s fine if someone is out for a long period of time. It’s simply too much of an endeavor to find the few relevant emails out of thousands. But for a week or two, I’m sorry but you have to manage your inbox. I know, it sucks. We all get too many dumb emails.

This is the dream. If I could do this, I would! I hate voicemails (and the phone in general) so, so much!
So, skip saying you are in Las Vegas attending your favorite conference with the hopes of seeing a show or finding some time to play the slot machines. Even if other colleagues are going to the same conference, just say you will have limited email accessibility for the week and will return the message as soon as possible. Rather than an Instagram post with the view outside your window and naming the hotel as soon as you arrive, save the photos for a limited audience upon your return. Finally, consider adjusting your settings so that your out of office message is sent to contacts only.
Note: If you don't see the Automatic Replies button, follow the steps to use rules to send an out of office message.
