Out sick email excuses
The art of crafting a convincing out-of-office email excuse! Here are some humorous and creative options:
The Classic
"Dear [Recipient],
Unfortunately, I've come down with a sudden case of 'I don't wanna work-itis.' My doctor has ordered me to take a few days off to recover. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will respond to your email as soon as I'm feeling better.
Best, [Your Name]"
The Overly Dramatic
"Dear [Recipient],
I'm writing to inform you that I've been struck down by a mysterious illness that has left me bedridden and unable to function. My symptoms include, but are not limited to: excessive fatigue, a severe lack of motivation, and an uncontrollable urge to binge-watch Netflix. I apologize for any disruption this may cause and will return to work as soon as I've recovered from this debilitating condition.
Sincerely, [Your Name]"
The Creative
"Dear [Recipient],
I'm afraid I've been afflicted with a rare and highly contagious case of 'Sudden Onset Procrastination Syndrome' (SOPS). My doctor has advised me to take a few days off to rest and recharge. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will respond to your email as soon as I've overcome this debilitating condition.
Best, [Your Name]"
The Sarcastic
"Dear [Recipient],
I'm thrilled to announce that I've come down with a delightful case of 'I'd rather be anywhere else-itis.' My symptoms include, but are not limited to: a strong desire to stay in bed, a lack of enthusiasm for work, and an uncontrollable urge to play video games. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will respond to your email as soon as I've recovered from this debilitating condition.
Best, [Your Name]"
The Honest (but still polite)
"Dear [Recipient],
Unfortunately, I'm not feeling well and need to take a few days off to rest and recover. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will respond to your email as soon as I'm feeling better.
Best, [Your Name]"
