    By the letter of the law they could dismiss you.
    HOWEVER that is highly unlikely.
    As others have said, it depends a lot on the nature of the docs copied.
    You may actualy have commited a criminal offence if you took restricted (and other) docs on a USB stick.
    I am not qualified to give the above advice!

    Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

        I remember my time spent modelling the T62 tank in 1986 - suddenly some highly highly classified photos turned up. We went from Fort Knockholt to chobham - put in a room blinds closed. After a while looking at photos and taking notes I turned them over - they were marked at lowest level. I therefore asked why they were not top secret or something. I was told then the Russians would get to know about it - all the really secret stuff is marked as restricted and kept under lock and key.

          I used a U3 USB stick with skype for 18 months before the client security people cottoned on to some application "phoning home". They didn't know what U3 was, and so were convinced that somehow my PC had got infected... They upgraded it and (because I stopped using skype), they problem went away.

                Outside of midwifery is there any other use for the word 'breech'?

                      There was nothing marked as classified, it was mostly induction material, h & s contact details etc.

                      I’ve been asked to go to another site a few months so rather than having the hassle of finding it all again I thought I’d just pop it onto a stick.

                      Yes I now know its 'Breach'.
                      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
