I can certainly understand not wanting to be dragged into situations repeatedly, but the examples you cited don't provide enough info to indicate that the two employees were doing anything wrong.

Sounds to me like you're punishing the people that work for you because you got annoyed that the police called you so late.

Again, I can only understand - and that is not even the right word, because I truly don't understand -- the attitudes and practices that you folks are espousing here by telling myself that you simply have no experience with or comprehension about why it is important to protect other people's rights.
