We’ve seen some cracking leaving work stunts in our time, but this ‘Out of Office’ message is the best ever.
We don’t know to what job this mystery person is off to, but their new employer is getting one funny, and clever, person.
This ‘Out of Office’ message for a departing employee was posted on Reddit today and it is a work of stone-cold genius.
For a start, it is told by Troy McClure, one of the greatest ever Simpsons characters. It begins in typical Troy style with the line: You might remember me from such out of office messages as Going to a Doctor’s Appointment that is definitely not a job interview and Eek! Here’s a spider in my ear.
From there on you get all the usual Troy McClure tropes and a classic sign off.
If we ever leave JOE Towers (don’t worry boss, we love it here. Honest) then we are using this effort.
Kudos to Redditor spookygeek for the post.
