I'm not thinking about just fraud (though this attitude is very much at the heart of embezzlement and other acts of personal gain at the expense of the company), but about the impact to professional levels of service delivery.

Just looking to one's own personal life provides a rich series of examples where important is sacraficed for urgent - poor eating habits, less/no exercise, lack of sleep - all given up for things that feel urgent at the time, but have limited long-term value. We sometimes get sloppy and lose our focus. Not malicious, just a simple error.
