BEST 'OUT OF OFFICE' E-MAIL RESPONSES <o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
1. I am currently out of the office at a job interview and will reply to you if I fail to get the position. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
2. You are receiving this automatic notification because I am out of the office. If I were in, chances are you wouldn't have received anything at all. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
3. Sorry to have missed you, but I'm at the doctor's having my brain and heart removed so I can be promoted to our management team. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
4. I will be unable to delete all the e-mails you send me until I <o:p></o:p>
return from vacation. Please be patient, and your e-mail will be deleted in the order it was received. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
5. Thank you for your e-mail. Your credit card has been charged <o:p></o:p>
$5.99 for the first 10 words and $1.99 for each additional word in your <o:p></o:p>
message. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
6. The e-mail server is unable to verify your server connection. <o:p></o:p>
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 <o:p></o:p>
see who did this over and over and over.!) <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
7. Thank you for your message, which has been added to a queuing <o:p></o:p>
system. You are currently in 352nd place and can expect to receive a reply in approximately 19 weeks. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
8. Hi, I'm thinking about what you've just sent me. Please wait by your PC for my response. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
9. I've run away to join a different circus. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
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.
