Already have,  and it didn't take much thought at all -- don't do that at work!

This ties in with things like short skirts,  outfits which show lots of
cleavage,  and similar stuff not falling into the category of what I'd call
"appropriate office attire".  Maybe if one's aspriation is to
become or maintain the position of "office slut",  but I don't
know that that's what they're trying to do.

That business that fired him should fire a counter-suit claiming for the
cost of paying him when he wasn't doing what he was getting paid for,  for
the use of the computer and other equipment,  etc.
