If you are using phones attached to a ZAP FXS port the immediate=yes will work. Otherwise, some SIP phones (Grandstream for instance) allows you to enter an autodial number. It depends on what is providing the dialtone to the handset. If your device does not support autodial, then the next best thing is to do what has already been suggested.

OR

[somecontext]
exten=s,1,answer
exten=s,2,Authenticate(insertdigitshere)
exten=s,3,(continue with a real dialplan)

Change the corresponding authenticate gsm file to say what you want about contacting the boss.

This gives the impression that phone is restricted for outbound calling but if you enter the authenticate string, you can dialout for emergencies or convenience.

Thanks,
Steve

It did not work, how can I put in some user intervention so that any numbers they dial will send them to a message? Restrict their outbound calls and a get a message to contact administrator instead of a busy signal.
