My female boss (a major badazz) told several women if they didn't come in they were suspended without pay the rest of the week.

These self-righteous women taking off work to make a point, will be disappointed to find that:

Offices and places of work will operate like clock-work.....no sneers, no daggers, no petty jealousy, no complaining, no wasting time, and no gossiping.

I worked with women like that for a number of years, and finally escaped. I'm a woman focused on my job, not all of the silly stuff above. I'll be working a 10 hour day, today.

Great advertising on this Civil Display of Unity, if I hadn't seen the news last night at 6:00 I wouldn't have even know this was brewing.....

At the Russian speaking community there is a tradition to celebrate this day for decades. Yes, it's something that comes from USSR. Women get presents, flowers, gold, money, etc.
And in the other way I don't want to have anything common with this new stuff.

I'm a woman and I think this "event" is nonsense. It does nothing, it proves nothing, and it's extremely silly. Doing anything (or nothing) for only one day has no impact whatsoever. I'm going to work today, just like I always do unless I'm taking vacation days or when I'm sick.
