I’m part time. I don’t use an out of office message, but I do have my hours in my signature, and sometimes include that information in the body of email.

They need to know when I’m available to get the work done!
That said, I think it is the kind of thing that is funny with the right people and in the right situation. But an out of office message is an autosend situation, so the email system cannot actually assess if it is appropriate or if the person receiving it will find it amusing, or unprofessional, or apparently even condescending. So while it is a hilarious message for a joke, it would not be a good idea in a professional setting!
