Personal usage of company email is pretty much universal. You should see some of the emails I've gotten from execs...

Actions like this are just a way to lay people off without severance or unemployment compensation.

There should be a simple standard applied to this sort of thing, if only a select few get fired for personal usage, then they should get the unemployment.

Note that you have only the fired workers' word for it that not everyone guilty was fired.

"Everyone does it," is the sort of excuse my 12-year-old might use - if he were much dumber...
