I’m OOF until the 12th of January. The term OOF is one of the classic Microsoft slang words and we use it constantly. It basically means you are ‘out of office’. The original was from the old Microsoft Xenix mail server. Read more here.
While I’m OOF I’m spending most of my time at home with the family (it after all supposed to be paternity leave). I also hope to squeeze in some work on a little technical project which has been ‘itching away at me’. I’ll also be using the time to do some career/’country I want to live in’ thinking.
I’ll be pretty slow to respond on my @microsoft.com email during this time – but at can be reached at my @philiprichardson.org account pretty easily.
