Out of office & Zapier

Hi, I have 2 questions:

1. My out-of-office autoreply is set.  My office hours are 8-5:30.  yet when i test it at 5pm, i get autoreply.  What am doing wrong?  yes, the time zone is set correctly in ring central.
2. Is there a way to initiate conversation when
   1. User submits form on my website?  Record is written into my database?
   2. Facebook user fills out facebook form.

Is there a zap that can be used to trigger sms?

Thank you
