An attitude of gratitude is essential during Thanksgiving day. It’s the start of the holiday season and what better way to celebrate than with a big Thanksgiving dinner with family and friends? But before you can let down your hair and loosen your tie to jumpstart your holiday plans, make sure you set your Thanksgiving out-of-office replies.
Unsure how to do it? Get inspiration from Template.net’s hundred out-of-office email samples. Here’s how you can do it.
If you must know, out-of-office messages are automated email messages to let others know that you’re not at work and will be back on a specified date. You can set this up in your Outlook email provider before your absence from work.
Check with your company policy about the tone of your out-of-office reply. But since it’s Thanksgiving, consider a cheerful and grateful voice in drafting your response.
Tap on your creative sense when you tailor your automated message to sound festive for the holidays. You may include some degree of professionalism while at the same time use casual language or even throw in a few appropriate jokes about Black Friday or how it’s a hamper holiday.
If you want your Thanksgiving weekend free from work-related messages? Opt to write a no-contact message. Don’t include an alternate number where they can contact you and specifically say that you will not respond to their messages, in a kind way, of course.
