I wish there was some watchdog type of union that would go after such people (who try to game the system) and sue their pants off in the courts. I wonder if there is any such provision in the law. Meanwhile, a ceo at a different hightech firm decided to 'keep' his laptop but no charges could be made against the ceo because he apparently had a lawyer ready to claim it was a 'benefit.'
