Whatsapp Template Message your babe!

My workplace (like a lot of places), has my computer locked down so I can't use whatsapp web 😢 ! The gf got a little upset with me one day for not letting her know I was working late, so now I have this cron script that'll ask me if I'm working late and then shoot off a whatsapp message to her!
