Each time someone has a few days off, they send an email to the entire company saying something along the lines of "I shall be out of the office until Monday......" and some put "I shall be taking some annual leave tomorrow...."

But I'm looking for something a little more entertaining to send round this afternoon for my long weekend.

Any ideas?

This is my list for the "Out of Office" email function, you could use these as a basis?:-

1. I am currently out at a job interview and will reply to
you if I fail to get the position. Be prepared for my mood.

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 am at the doctor's
having my brain and heart removed so I can be promoted to our management team.

4. I will be unable to delete all the unread, worthless
emails you send me until I return from vacation. Please be patient and
your mail 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 e-mail server is unable to verify your server
connection and is unable to deliver this message. Please restart your computer and try sending again.

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 2 weeks for medical reasons. When I return, please refer to me as 'Loretta' instead of 'Bob'

The old C U Next Tuesday routine gets aired in this office all the time, causing much laughter...even after years of it.

Damn you, Mr Brightside for killing my idea.
