1. In Outlook, enable your out-of-office message, set it to start right now.
  2. Click Save.
  3. Immediately see a pop-up asking if you want to turn that off.

WTF Microsoft? Who would ever do that?

I suppose someone might have turned it on for the wrong dates, but 99.99% of the time this is just annoying.

    Ideally, you would set this up ahead of time and won’t need to see it. But the thing that annoys me about outlook’s out-of-office thing is that by default, it just turns on for people in your organization. So if you forget to turn it on for everyone you can have an annoyed client wondering why you haven’t responded all week.
