      Yeah. Most of the tech industry intern firings I’m aware of are for sex with other interns at work. Horny teen learns self control is a story they can tell.

      Leaking trade secrets is not.

        Why would you fire someone for having consensual sex with another employee?

        Thats fucked-up if that’s legal

          Because they were doing it at work, where other employees saw them. Other people having sex in front of me is generally inconsistent with getting work done.

      When I was an intern, a lot of the interns were terrible and didn’t even bother to show up. The big bank just let them finish their internship cause it was more work to fire them…
