So, I know links don't work well, but you can see the title. It'll be easy enough to google, if you haven't seen it already.

I've always said that you are well within your right to walk out or skip on work or school to protest, but you should also face the consequences. I would not skip work and expect my place of employment to just accept it.

This is also why I wouldn't participate in the women's day off coming up.
