How long does it take for an offer letter to come in?

I was told an offer letter was being produced by HR for me the Thursday before last, but that HR was shorthanded so it might take until next week (last week, labor day week). I did not hear anything so I reached back out (last Thursday) and was told it was being processed and that the person that has to sign off had been traveling. It's now almost a week since then and still no offer letter. Should I be worried?
