Net result...probably at least one month off w/o pay, no notice flight checks for a year and a nasty letter to follow.
A 5 to 10 thousand dollar fine tends to get ones notice. Also I expect that the company flight manual will have a new page or two in it.

I can see it now, the new classic joke among flyers, the flying equivalent of the dog ate my homework:
I was distracted by my lap top... yep, that's it.

Sure. It’s common to fly into denied airspace because you’re goofing off and there are never any consequences. Now, who’s ignorant here?
