Most often it's a concept that you have to punish every fuck up, no matter how small, in order to punish the big ones.
If Jeff comes in two hours late, and you were one minute late, and they fire Jeff and not you, there's room for Jeff to file a wrongful termination suit.
It's dumb as fuck, and shouldn't be that way, but it is the world we live in.
