Your out-of-office assistant

One last tip for conference delegates – don’t forget to activate your out-of-office email reply.

Here’s a template for you if you’re in a hurry:

Thanks for your email. I’ll be attending the best AMSRS conference ever from Wednesday morning to Friday lunchtime this week.

You can try me on the mobile (your mobile number here), but I’ll be networking till my ears bleed in the breaks, so probably won’t remember to check my phone for messages.

And I’ll be partying till my feet ache on Wednesday and Thursday night, so please don’t expect much until I’m back in the office on (your return day here).

If your matter is urgent, please contact (name of poor sucker back in the office) on (poor sucker’s contact details).
