You might get fired plus sued.

This is a sentiment that is very typical among Singaporeans. I suspect it has something to do with the political/business climate over there.

While the USA is also litigation happy, it actually takes an incredibly high amount of deliberate destruction for an employer to succeed in suing an employee.

I'm just an immigrant here.

I don't think it's very likely you'd get sued, but I wouldn't want to risk it against well funded adversaries with expensive lawyers.
