I'm sure they are already trying to find a lawyer that will help them sue Google for wrongful termination. But since they were sitting there for 10 hours, wouldn't that mean they weren't doing their jobs for 10 hours? Dereliction of duty in addition to all of the other stuff?
The list of company policies they violated is probably extensive, too much to list. I'm not an HR expert or an expert on any Google policies, but to name a few:
- Refusing to work on company time
- Creating a hostile work environment
- Disturbing other employees from conducting business
- Slander against the company
- Acting in a way during work that harms the company brand
Probably violating some NDA **** too.
