Looks like yet another blogger was on the receiving end of "tolerant" people. Looks like they used the "inappropriate and unauthorized use of ... computing resources" clause that most companies make their employees agree to in their employee handbook. I'm pretty sure mine did , too... Hooray for living on the edge! Biggest problem most companies face is that if an employee challenges the termination, usually that individual has been singled out, because several known instances can be found occurring at the same place, with no administrative action taken. Also, employers will usually not terminate first, unless something illegal was taking place (file swapping, bootlegging company software, etc.).
