I Agree LH, that no laws were violated (though Im betting some company policy was, what occured here is rather like someone finding out what your salary is and telling everyone. They came by the information perhaps honestly, but do they have a duty to go and talk about it? In many US companies inappropriate dissemination of information is actionable most often by termination ), there is a matter of business ethics here that was seriously bruised in this case. Confidential information is confidential information, whether it's from bossie's calander or his file cabinet there is an inherent duty in any good support professional to respect any and ALL information that crosses her desk or computer screen, whether it is confidential or not. I stand by my initial chastisement to your coworker Bad form! and applaud you for taking the high road. Your coworker, however, could use free certificate to a Business Ethics 101 course.
