Best “Out of Office” Automatic Email Replies
March 20, 2008
My friend who is thinking of his upcoming vacation, sent me the “Automatic Email Replies” below asking for my help in choosing the best one. I am so glad I don’t have to create one of these “Out Of Office” replies in a corporate cubicle. I can come up with my own creative replies…..
1. I am currently out of the office at a job interview and will reply to you
if I fail to get the position.
2. You are receiving this automatic notification because I am out of the
office. If I was in, chances are you wouldn’t have received anything at all.
3. Sorry to have missed you, but I’m at the doctor’s office having my brain
and heart removed so I can be promoted to our management team.
4. I will be unable to delete all the emails you send me until I return from
vacation. Please be patient, and your email will be deleted in the order it
was received.
5. Thank you for your email. Your credit card has been charged $5.99 for the
first 10 words and $1.99 for each additional word in your message.
6. The email server is unable to verify your server connection. Your message
has not been delivered. Please restart your computer and try sending again.
(The beauty of this is that when you return, you can see who did this over
and over and over…)
7. Thank you for your message, which has been added to a queuing system. You
are currently in 352nd place, and can expect to receive a reply in approximately 19 weeks.
8. Hi, I’m thinking about what you’ve just sent me. Please wait by your PC
for my response.
9. I’ve run away to join a different circus.
10. I will be out of the office for the next two weeks for medical reasons.
When I return, please refer to me as ‘Lucille’ instead of Steve.
