If you're planning to take the day off on Wednesday, here's a list of out-of-office replies you can send to everyone on staff, letting them know just how historic this moment is and/or just how clever you are....

They showed up and therefore they should win.

3.I will be out of the office all day Wednesday striking on behalf of women everywhere, because come on now why do you even need a because.
4.Please forgive any delays in my response time. I’m out of office today at the Women’s Strike and will have access to email but have pledged not to check it until I return.

Thanks! Don’t email any more!
5.I will be out of the office on Wednesday, March 8 to participate in the Women’s Strike. If you need immediate assistance, find your nearest benign man and ask him to do it instead.
6.I will be out of office beginning Wednesday March 8 for the Women’s Strike and will do my best not to return.

Just walked out of a Panda Express that had a sign on its door that they will be closing on the 8th for the Strike. I told the guy running the place my strike (against Panda Express) won’t be ending for years. I hope he is happy. But, frankly, this should be the fate of any business who decides to mix politics with my meal.
“The person you are trying to reach is no longer employed here.”...
I would have absolutely no hesitation to do JUST THAT if one of my employees decides to be absent due to some stupid “lark”.
Im just disappointed National Pancake Day has gone by so fast.
"Sorry, I can't make it work today, I'm having a pizza-eating rendevous with Triggly Puff."
National “Make me a Sammich!” day!
The really good Chinese place nearby is open just about every day.
At the counter is a very nice lady who knows my usual orders.
Must be the franchisee because the owners of the company are very conservative Taiwanese.
