Someone I used to work with used to (probably still does) pick up girls on Craigslist. He would flirt with them endlessly in email, then eventually arrange to meet (and fuck) them. Idiot used his work email account to do it. He came in to work one day and there were a stack of these emails (pretty raunchy stuff, if I know this guy) in his box with a note -- "Do we need to discuss the proper use of company software?" He didn't get fired, he didn't even have to have an uncomfortable talk with anyone. Of course he continued the behavior, he just used his Yahoo! email account. Maybe a year later he was fired for email/text stalking another coworker after her husband found out about their affair, she broke it off, and he couldn't let go.
