So we end up relying on an auto-generated OOO thats impersonal at best and robotic at worstTime people got the messageUnchaining yourself from that desk is important And in an age where lounging on a beach is no excuse not to answer e-mails, its time the over-worked peoples of the world found a better way to tell folk theyre out of the loop.But how to strike that tricky balance between respecting clients and waving bye-bye? Here are 5 cool and fun ways to give your OOOs a kick up the a**5. Steves trip to ItalyHubSpot have created a great solution for your auto-messaging needs.

When you understand that flower, youll know how to truly reach me.For those of you not willing to take the journey, please wait until my return or email Basil at emailprotected(In case youre wondering, Basil isnt a real person, so dont try and e-mail him... hell only send an out of office reply anyway)4. Promoting yourselfThe best way to combine geschftsleben and pleasure? Leave an OOO that does some cheeky self-promotion, as well as allowing some breathing space for you.Subject LineSorry not sorryBodyYes, its one of those out-of-office auto-replies Im currently away until (insert date). That doesnt mean you have to twiddle your thumbs though. We both have the same goal - your success. Here are some colleagues (insert names if you want) who will take care of you. Theyll cut through the waffle and get you to the good stuff before my imminent comeback.3. Movie magicFocusing in the workplace is, of course, important, but a good distraction can take the pressure off a stressful day. Why not give someone a chuckle with movie-style message? See if you can guess this movie from the text below...Subject LineGone fishinBodyIm going to need a bigger boat.Not to catch a shark, but I may catch some rays Yep, my (insert person here) is taking me on a much-deserved break.Dont worry, youre still my chum (geddit?) and Im hungry for those big business fish.

A classic example is below.Subject LineIt had to doneBody1. Limited accessThis in many ways is the trickiest OOO to compose.

Taking a couple of days either side of a public holiday, for instance, means you really make the most of your time off.
