Oh gosh. You’ve just reminded me that I was supposed to change my VM before every vacation or holiday at my old job. Something I completely forgot to do after the first year. Whoops!

The Management Office will be closed on [date] for [Holiday Name]. Any inconvenience caused is much regretted.
Total and utter cringe! Sounds like something a cheeky 11th grader would think is the epitome of word smithing. If someone sent this out at my work everyone would make fun of them and HR would make them change the message.
I, in turn, will cheer you up with some sunny photos of this great place where I’m staying.
I had a coworker that (pre-covid) had an out of office set up any time she worked from home.

It was weird to keep getting those messages, since her working from home had zero effect on your correspondence with her.
A couple work friends and I banded together years ago to fill each others’ voicemails so it would be impossible to leave us new voicemails.

I think simple is best, and also safest. I found the message in the post amusing as an AAM article, but if I had contacted this person on a serious and/or urgent work matter I would probably be annoyed by the comedy skit. And I was contacting them because they had messed up somehow, it would land very badly.
